The government has officially scrapped the plan for these massive polyclinics. We stopped the closures because 428 people refused to stay quiet. Keep watching the news to make sure they do not try to revive this scheme under a different name.

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to abandon his plans for the creation of polyclinics. We do not want our GP services centralized into super sized health clinics which, according to a Labour Press Release on April 15th, will be built "in every town and city". We believe that the creation of Polyclinics will inevitably lead to the closure of smaller, local GP clinics.

The momentum behind this campaign is picking up speed because you chose to take a stand for local healthcare. Now it is time to turn that energy into action by emailing your local representative and demanding they oppose these centralized clinics.

its about accessibility. older people rely on the surgery down the street. centralizing everything is just gonna make it harder for the people who actually need help.

KEEP OUR CLINICS LOCAL! Nobody wants to travel across town just to see a GP. This is a bad idea.
