Save Your Local GP
How important is your relationship with your family doctor?
How important is it that your health is in the hands of someone you know and trust? That in times of anxiety you can turn to a familiar face for advice and support?
We think it’s very important.
That’s why we are campaigning against Labour’s plans to shut local family doctor surgeries and force GPs and patients into large, impersonal ‘polyclinics’ instead.
And it’s why we’re asking you to join our campaign today by signing our petition against Labour’s plans.
Up to 1,700 GP surgeries could be axed, and hundreds of thousands of people would have their relationship with their doctor destroyed.
Patients would be lucky to see the same GP twice at ‘polyclinics’ – what use is that to those suffering from long-term illnesses?
And with their local surgery shut down, people will have to travel three times further on average for vital care – how will that help the pensioners and new mothers whose mobility is limited?
For the sake of your health, please join our fight to save local GP surgeries by signing our petition today.
