Save Huddersfield Royal Infirmary A&E department.
Reconsider the terrible decision to close Huddersfield Royal Infirmary Accident & Emergency department.
Why is this important?
Huddersfield is one of the largest towns in the UK. It has a growing economy and thriving student population. To take away the Huddersfield Royal Infirmary A&E will undoubtedly cost lives (with Calderdale Royal Hospital being the 'nearest' A&E). It will increase the burden on Primary Care, especially in rural areas where resources are already limited.
Latest news reports suggest this could be the start of a bigger plan to demolish the HRI completely, which would be catastrophic not only in terms of job losses but potential lives lost, and again increasing the strain on over-stretched Primary Care services.
