As a former cancer patient I wholeheartly endorse this, however it needs to go further. I, and a lot of other people from this area still have to travel to Shrewsbury for our check-ups and results. if you have to rely on public transport this is very inconvenient. I understand why radiotherapy can only be based in one hospital as the equipment is so expensive, but Telford needs and deserves more for cancer patients.

My partner works at the PRH and they were called to a meeting where the Future Fit people declared they preferred most services including A&E, go to Shrewsbury If this goes ahead, when people from Telford die because they couldn't get to hospital quick enough will these same people be able to be charged with manslaughter? Ask these questions, who never closes their A&E dpt? Answer: Telford. Why: Because at Telford, unlike Shrewsbury, they belive under NO circumstances A&E should never close Where were millions spent on a very successful Women's unit? Answer: Telford Why: Because it was decided it was the best place for it. I'm not sure what motives Future Fit have but I am sure these cowards have a hidden agenda which will benefit them and the government but will cost Telford & Wrekin citizens lives
