Bolton NHS have announced a planned budget cut of £37 Million this year and expect to make further cuts next year. These cuts signal an ongoing programme of reductions to local NHS services .

Proposed changes include workforce cuts, service redesign and potential closures, raising serious concerns about the impact on patient care and already overstretched staff. At the same time, there are growing fears about the increasing role of private companies profiting from NHS services.

Local people deserve transparency, proper consultation, and a say in decisions that affect their health services. This petition is a call to protect our NHS in Bolton—before these cuts go too far.

PETITION: STOP NHS CUTS – NHS NOT FOR SALE

We, the undersigned, oppose cuts to services at Bolton NHS Foundation Trust.

At a time of rising demand, cuts will put patients at risk and increase pressure on NHS staff.

We are also concerned about the growing use of private companies to deliver NHS services—taking profit from our NHS while services are cut.

We call for:

• An immediate halt to NHS cuts in Bolton
• Proper funding for local NHS services
• An end to NHS privatisation and outsourcing
