'Conservative Cabinet approves City Bid whilst hiding it’s cost' - say Medway Liberal Democrats

Medway Liberal Democrats are deeply disappointed by Tuesday's cabinet meeting, where the ruling Tory administration approved Medway's city bid.

' Health Secretary's decision will mean Medway Hospital will be losing its stroke provision' - say Liberal Democrats

Medway Liberal Democrats are disappointed at the Health Secretary's decision to close Medway Hospital's stroke provision in favour of Hyper Acute Units. Since the announcement in September 2018 of the decision not to place a 24/7 hyper acute stroke service here in Medway, we have called for the retention of this life saving service to remain at Medway Maritime Hospital. The decision of having vital support services located an hour away as being unacceptable.

Though we welcome the funds and agree with the need to improve Chatham town centre, we are deeply concerned that all recent funding and attention is on Chatham, whilst other places like Gillingham are ignored.
