Save Emsworth Town Centre Health Services

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

The Emsworth Victoria Cottage Hospital is the most appropriate and accessible location to support the current and future needs of the whole community. Supporting the economic viability of the Emsworth.
Why has this viable option been abandoned by the NHS without providing the community who funded this venerable site in the early 1900s with a full explanation? The site was intended to be for the benefit of future generations, yet the proceeds of any sale of the land will end up in the coffers of the NHS’s property company!

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This would be a decision for the local NHS bodies, not the UK Government or Parliament.
