BHRUT have ignored my 2pm deadline for today, so making it fair comment to say BHRUT are suppressing key information. I will be handing the below to Labour members before the meeting this evening.

Dear Residents
Campaign
for a new Wing at King George News
1)
Suppression of Type 1 statistics needs to end
BHRUT,
the trust managing King George and Queens hospitals used to supply
information about type 1 attendances at King George and Queens
Hospitals per the below:
Today,
Chris Bown, the Interim Chief Executive ignored my appeal for the
above statistics to be published. Earlier this year, BHRUT gave a
welcome guarantee that King George A&E type 1 would stay open.
Keeping open the type 1 is important as it is backed up by 299 in
patient beds. The type 3 A&E at King George is for minor illness
and injuries. Suppressing the type 1 A&E attendances makes it
difficult for the public and elected representatives to know if the
type 1 guarantee is being honoured. These suppressed statistics are
also vital evidence for why we need a new wing to be built at King
George.
Cllr
Zammett, the Labour Chair of the Redbridge Health Committee has been
critical of BHRUT under reporting of type 1 statistics per my tweet
of 4th October containing a video of Cllr Zammett's
announcement of discovering systematic type 1 under reporting by
BHRUT.
If
you could retweet my tweet about this sent earlier today it would be
helpful.
2) New
Wing for King George Meeting and Walk of 9th November
So
far 32 people are attending or interested per the Facebook event page
https://www.facebook.com/events/1096032374121094/
The Lib-Dem and Green Party PPCs are speaking at the meeting at
Ilford Town Hall for 3pm which is supported by Redbridge Trades
Council. I hope the Labour PPC who is selected this evening will
speak too. Any help sharing the event page would be welcome.
Regards
Andy
Walker
