PEOPLE in Ludlow will get a chance to have their say on local health services next Monday (March 23).

A ‘pop up’ event will be staged at Ludlow Community Hospital on options for future health care in south Shropshire.

It is one of a series of sessions being staged throughout the county.

“The pop up shops have proven a great success with many people taking the time to find out more and tell us what they think about the proposed changes,” said Dr Caron Morton, a former Ludlow GP and the lead person for the Clinical Commissioning Group.

“Perhaps one of the best things to come out of these days is the fact that so many people have gone away with a better understanding of what we are trying to achieve which is fantastic.

"If you haven’t had chance to visit one of our pop-up stands yet there is still time with five more dates and venues still to come.”

The Ludlow event is at the community hospital on Monday (March 23) between 9am and 4pm.

A key issue will be the location of a number of proposed emergency care centres that is linked to the future of the hospital in Ludlow.

As well as having a say on a recommended shortlist of options for transforming emergency, planned, and urgent care, people will also be able to find out more about NHS Future Fit and other local services.
