Rejected petition Reopen High Wycombe’s Hospital
High Wycombe’s has a population of 125,257 people. Buckinghamshire’s second largest community. A community with this amount of people needs a 24hr hospital with an Accident and emergency department
More details
it takes just over 30 mins to get to Stoke Mandeville Hospital which has a population of 60000, 27 minutes to get to Wexham Park hospital and as we all know in an emergency every second counts, A town that has a university and no hospital just a walk in clinic that shuts at 20:00 hrs I therefore would like the government to relook at reopening the hospital in High Wycombe, due to the size of the population and time it takes to get to neighbouring hospitals.
