There's another consultation for Ealing - which might be easier to get to:"The Shaping a Healthier Future programme team will have two public consultation events in each borough.  The second event for Ealing will be in the Victoria Hall, Ealing Town Hall on Tuesday 11 September from 2 - 8pm so of course you and your members are welcome to attend this event. Best wishes Duncan StroudHead of CommunicationsNHS Ealing, NHS Hillingdon, NHS Hounslow"

It would be nice of them to do one in Acton, there again, Hell will freeze over first. The area most seriously affected is Acton, so why are they avoiding us?  Not everyone can travel to Ealing Town Hall, very inconsiderate."The Shaping a Healthier Future programme team??????Spit on them.

and me! Please all sign the petition, it can make a difference. There is also a stall at Acton market on Saturdays between 12 and 2.

338 signatures isn't going to make much of an impression. I think the politicos need to start making a fuss to raise awareness about this important issue. Please sign if you don't want to lose local NHS a&e facilities.
