Save our rural hospitals!

Rural community hospitals in the Cotswolds such as Cirencester and Moreton provide essential, accessible healthcare close to home. 

They ease pressure on larger hospitals such as Cheltenham and Gloucester, support older and recovering patients, and ensure that people in rural areas are not forced into long, difficult journeys for routine treatment and rehab. 

Any cuts, closures or “temporary” service changes at Cirencester Hospital (which the NHS has announced recently) or elsewhere in the Cotswolds undermines this lifeline. With thousands of new homes planned and an ageing population in the Cotswolds, we need greater investment in our rural hospitals, not further reductions.
