Please do not shut our walk in centres Arrow Park can't cope as it is. They would be overwhelmed with all those extra patients.

I have used miriam minor injury a few times. Very quick service and excellent service. Whenever i have asked 111 or local pharmacies for advise they have asked me to go to the minor injury service. Now the CCG is saying all our problems will be dealt with by 111 or pharmacies, which is a lie. So where does it leave the public. Totally unacceptable.

I absolutely disagree with any plan to close Miriam Walk in Clinic in Laird St. Birkenhead. How can it benefit the elderly, disabled mothers with young children, those with mobility challenges etc. who rely on public transport to move this vital service away from the community to Arrowe Park Hospital ? Apart from the travelling time to get to Arrowe Park there's the cost of transport. Many, not all, of the patients who use this clinic, are already disadvantaged socio-economically. Walking is the way when in need of minor treatments and being treated quickly in these clinics avoids escalation to more serious conditions that will put even more pressure on A &E at Arrowe Park Hospital. Please do not close this vital service to health.

. Public transport does not support these changes. . Arrowe Park Hospital is already at capacity and cannot cope especially during winter. . GP services are already overstretched and this will get worse under the proposals. . The community deserves local NHS services.

Arrowe Park hospital's current facilities are already overstretched & are struggling to provide their services in an effective & timely manner which is compromising patient care.The closure of local walk in centres will just add to this.There are also problems with parking at the hospital which is going to be made even worst.How are the elderly & vunrable going to be able to get there aswell??'

We need these walk in centres as it’s near impossible to get appointment off the doctors if you don’t get three by 8.10am

It's outrageous to expect people to have to travel longer distances to get medical help.

Our NHS is being run into the ground. These centres help our communities and release the pressure on our local hospitals.
