Less than a week after the launch of the Sutton Liberal Democrats’ ‘‘£400 Million for St Helier’’ campaign almost 1,000 local residents have already pledged their support.
The campaign, launched following a public meeting chaired by Tom Brake MP and attended by 130 people, aims to get the Conservative government to agree to fund the £400 million investment programme for St Helier hospital.
Commenting on the news Tom Brake said:
‘‘It’s only been a week and it’s fantastic to see the energy behind the campaign. It’s clear that residents overwhelmingly support the need to refurbish the hospital and retain critical services at St Helier.”
