Our local NHS doctors, nurses and support staff have played a vital role in tackling the coronavirus pandemic. I welcome the £2.1 million investment in the Intensive Care Unit at Macclesfield Hospital and the opening of The Christie Cancer Centre at the hospital.
The latest news on the further delay to the reopening of the maternity unit at Macclesfield Hospital, after its temporary closure in March 2020, is very disappointing.
The hard work, dedication and public service of staff at Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (CWP), our local mental health services provider, has once again been recognised in the annual NHS Parliamentary Awards.
Local MP, David Rutley, has welcomed progress towards delivering new facilities to keep important inpatient mental health beds for adults and older people in Macclesfield, having campaigned on this vital issue for many months.
