Photo shoot tomorrow midday Saturday 2nd November outside Ilford Town Hall: Put up the banner for a new wing for at King George Cllr Athwal!

Yesterday Cllr Athwal refused my request to put up the banner on the town hall pillars to promote the meeting of the 9th of November to say we need a new wing at King George Hospital to cope with the increasing East London population per the tweet below.

Cllr Athwal is wrong to say a new wing for  King George is policy making on the hoof.  On the contrary, it is backed up by substantial and well funded research both by the NHS and Redbridge Council below.

2017 NHS report saying £125M needs to be spent on extra beds

BHRUT commissioned a report in 2017 from PWC, the management consultants into the future of King George & Queens which is HERE The key part is below


The report is silent which site the £125M should be spent or if it is a combination of extra beds at both sites. King George appears the best because it has the space for both a new wing, car parking and an excellent link to the A12 for intelligent traffic lights for patients with life threatening conditions where every second counts.

2018 Redbridge Council Report showing 160 beds closed

Wes Streeting MP chaired a report funded by Redbridge Council about King George and Queens a copy is HERE an extract from page 66 is below.


The bed closures are acute, this means for emergency admissions, these beds have been substituted in part by closing rehabilitation beds from the closure of Wanstead hospital and beds at from St Georges in Hornchurch.

Closing these beds has damaged patient care and caused the need, together with an expanding population for a new wing at King George.
