Letter: ‘We need to have our say on health cuts’
REGARDING the closure of Newmarket out-of-hours service, I attended the forum held by Harmoni at Worlington Hall Hotel on April 25, having by pure chance, picked up a leaflet from a local pharmacy. Everyone I have spoken to was unaware of this event. Not only was the venue for this forum totally unsuitable, being only accessible by car, it was not very well publicised (ie local papers) and therefore residents of Newmarket did not have the opportunity to attend, voice their opinion and gather information regarding this service.
