Pensioners present Hornsey Hospital petition to PM
A delegation of local pensioners has presented a petition of over 500 signatures to Number 10 Downing Street protesting against the neglect of the Hornsey Hospital site and demanding delivery of long promised NHS service for older residents.
Lynne Featherstone, Lib Dem MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, who helped organise presenting of the petition, comments:
“Local campaigners have done a fantastic job collecting these signatures and now it’s for the government to take action.Hornsey Hospital has stood empty for too long and a new community hospital will make a real difference to older people, some of whom will depend on local NHS services.
“The key to any development is consulting – NHS chiefs cannot steamroller through any plans.They need to engagement our community every step of the way.”
