We, the undersigned, are very concerned about the proposals by the Redbridge Primary Care Trust within the "Health for North East London" program. These proposals substantially downgrade medical facilities at King George Hospital, the only remaining general hospital in the borough. Of particular concern is the absence of Accident and Emergency provision and the risks this may have for local residents.

We ask the PCT to reconsider their proposals such as to safeguard and improve the quality of medical care in Redbridge and in particular the long term future of accident & emergency medical services in Redbridge.
