As a pensioner who is moderately active and just happens to need Hospital care, I have to rely on a lift from a friend or a taxi.

Over the last three weeks I have been to St Helier three times for consultation and diagnostic checks. Going to St George's would have been virtually impossible as I have problems with travel over 15 minutes.

We need our St Helier to continue to provide for our Health and Safety, for all the people in Sutton, Merton and surrounding areas.
