LEGAL BATTLE FOR NEW A+E HOSPITAL IN WEST HERTS

by New Hospital Campaign in Hemel Hempstead, England, United Kingdom

We did it
On 27th November 2019 we successfully raised £9,896 with 265 supporters in 77 days

We need to go to law in support of a new hospital on a clear central site instead of renovating a crumbling and inaccessible existing one.

Population, Population, Population

Out of all ten councils in Hertfordshire, Dacorum has the biggest population. St Albans is third and Watford only comes in at seventh out of ten.

So why do our healthcare bosses persist in pushing Watford as the only possible site for our hospital?

The combined populations of Dacorum and St Albans are far higher than the rest of the West Herts Hospitals Trust area put together.

What’s more, with the government’s plans for a new Garden Community of 11,000 houses straddling the border between Dacorum and St Albans, we’re going to be growing at a much faster rate than the rest of the area.

It stands to reason that a new hospital, that we can all get to, goes back on the table for consideration.

As of this morning (30th October) our total raised including donations received directly is now at £13,698!  

We are getting ever closer to our target £20k but still need your help and support to keep sharing and explaining why this challenge in the courts is a crucial step towards getting a new hospital build, fit for the decades of population growth to come.
