Reverse the NHS decision to close Children Orthodontics Services in West Byfleet

Petition Details

NHS England decided to close orthodontics services in West Byfleet, which is a walk to local secondary schools, affecting areas of need. At least 1800 Kids are set to suffer lost learning time due to an ill advised decision from commissioners that has gone against advise public health consultants.

Additional Information

Last Friday NHS England found NEW money to resurrect NHS braces services in one ofthe most affluent areas of England, Weybridge. In doing so they ignored the many children from West Byfleet, Pyrford, Byfleet & New Haw, Addlestone and Sheerwater. The advise to safe guard NHS brace services in border location was ignored. Public Money that was meant for keeping these current NHS braces next to the local secondary schools was taken away from some of the poorest kids in Surrey to give to Weybridge
