A petition to save a mental health unit based in Gedling from closure has attracted over 750 signatures.
Campaigners hoping to save Broomhill House set up the petition after the Nottinghamshire Healthcare Trust recently announced it faces the threat of closure.
The service, which has been based in the village for over 20 years, provides care and treatment for patients who are recovering from enduring mental health conditions but are not yet ready to return home. It also provides an outreach service that enables some of its patients to live at home in the local community.
You can sign the petition via the following link: https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save-broomhill-rehabilitation-unit-1
You can also share your views and find more information on the closure plans on the Trust’s website at www.nottinghamshirehealthcare.nhs.uk/haveyoursay The deadline for comments is July 28, 2015.
A public meeting to discuss the closure will take place at St George’s Centre in Netherfield on Friday, July 17, at 10am.
Let’s get some more signatures as we need to save this place!
