Officials to meet to discuss the future of maternity services at St Helier Hospital

Mitcham & Morden

On Friday 6th November, officials at St Helier Hospital will meet to decide the future of key services at the site, including maternity and women’s services.

This week, together with the Cabinet Member for Health and Social Care at Merton Council Peter McCabe, I met with staff at the maternity unit to hear their experiences.

They were very clear that they, just like us, want to keep the excellent services they provide at the St Helier site and they do not feel that the board has listened to them.

If you would like to support the staff of the women’s maternity unit, please do go along to the meeting on 6th November and make your voice heard. You can also sign our petition to keep the facilities open by following this link.
