Re-open Newark Accident and Emergency Department

Additional Information

As evidenced by the increased fatalities of a THIRD in the Newark area, the closure of Newark A&E Department has had a significant effect on the survival of emergency patients.

This petition calls for the re-opening of Newark A&E. Currently there is a 40 minute wait for an ambulance and then a further 40 minute journey to the nearest Emergency department.
