Keep Critical Stroke Services in Medway
A legal challenge to stop the closure of one of Kent's six stroke units has been launched in the High Court. The decision will have a devastating effect for people in the Medway Towns. We see having a vital support service located an hour away as unacceptable and want a decision reconsidered as soon as possible. The decision impacts on half-million people who use Medway Hospital and the availability of critical stroke care to the 400,000 people within the catchment of Medway Hospital.

No holidaymakers or intending air travellers should have to endure this. It is a desperately sad way to start your holiday.
