Come to the Zoom meeting this Saturday 3pm April 25th Campaigning for a New Wing at King George Hospital

According to recent tweet by Cllr Santos, BHRUT have provided an extra 117 beds at a previously disused Goodmayes Hospital building to cope with extra demand during the coronavirus crisis.

This extra temporary capacity is welcome and local NHS managers deserve to be congratulated for commissioning the works so quickly.

BHRUT is carrying out a clinical review now into the future of King George and Queens. The review must consider making the temporary facility part of a permanent new wing at  King George for maternity, universal same day emergency care (currently limited to the elderly frail) and acute beds to relieve pressure on Queens and cope with the expanding East London population. 

Email at andy.walker@talk21.com to get an invite to attend the virtual meeting and have your say at the meeting.

We aim to get press in the following week.

Speakers include Bob Archer, Redbridge Trades Union Council, Pete Mason, Socialist Party & RoseMary Warrington - Green Party
