SAVE OUR WIRRAL WALK-IN CENTRES!

The Issue

The Wirral Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has announced (September 2018) that it wants to close five local NHS clinics because Wirral residents “were confused about where to get help with urgent care”. The CCG, which is the local arm of NHS England, says it wants to “move care closer to home”.

Are YOU confused? Will YOUR care be closer to home if they close centres which are used by THOUSANDS of Wirral residents every week of the year?

Eastham Clinic; Victoria Central, Wallasey; Miriam Medical Centre, Birkenhead; Parkfield Medical Centre, New Ferry; Moreton Medical Centre

All these are due to close. Will a proposed ‘urgent treatment centre’ at Arrowe Park be closer to YOUR home?

The Decision Makers

Responded
There has still not been any substantive response to the people who signed petitions like this. 32000 (the equivalent of one in five of the Wirral adult population) have opposed the CCG's plans - in writing. So now a new campaign is starting. Defend Our NHS and local doctors are supporting an alternative plan to save the centres and their services. Watch out for petition sheets at street stalls - and on change.org. Thank you.
