Save Newholme hospital from closure

Closed 2,370 signatures

What the petition asks

Bakewell will lose all its facilities at Newholme hospital under the ‘Better Care Closer to Home’ proposal made by the government. This includes rehabilitation for inpatients along with care for mental health and dementia.
Other services are also provided for the surrounding community including physiotherapy, podiatry, and other day care services.
Losing this hospital with the valuable services that it provides would be a massive loss to the local people. Please help to prevent the closure by signing the petition to save Newholme hospital.
