Hospital with 24/7 emergency services in Maidenhead

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

St Marks hospital can be provided with additional resources and funding to cater 24/7 for emergency services
Maidenhead has grown massively and new build homes are mushrooming everywhere with council opening up the area big time. It's important infrastructure is also built to support the same growth. Currently Maidenhead a/e is either slough Wexham or reading. Wexham is already overcrowded and thinly staffed while Royal berks is not in the coverage area.
Maidenhead with such big population requires a hospital of it's own with all facilities
