Petition Action

Reinstate maternity and paediatric wards to the Alexandra Hospital, Redditch

Petition Details

In the last seven years, expectant mothers from Redditch and the surrounding areas have been forced to travel to Worcester for antenatal appointments and to give birth, including those with a complicated pregnancy and labour. This was only supposed to be a 'temporary' measure

Additional Information

Make the WAHT return these services to the Alexandra Hospital which they promised this was a temporary measure and have gone back on their word. The lives of women and their unborn babies are at risk and are more important than saving money. The Worcestershire Royal Hospital, Worcester is struggling to cope with the burden of an entire county
