August 22, 2007 11:15 AM
West Worcestershire's Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidate, Richard Burt revealed more support for from Worcestershire and Herefordshire MPs and candidates for his joint proposal with staff to save Bransford EOC, submitted to the West Midlands Ambulance Trust this morning.
Mr Burt said he was delighted to be able to add the names of Hereford MP, Paul Keetch and Hereford and South Herefordshire Liberal Democrat Parliamentary Candidate, Sarah Carr to the proposal.
"We now have strong support from across the two counties and it is up to the board to listen. I have not spoken to a single politician or member of the public that supports the Trust's closure plans," said Mr Burt.
"The campaign to save Bransford does not stop here. More work will be done during the final five weeks of the consultation as I continue to receive more information to strengthen our case from campaign supporters.
"Michael Foster MP responded by saying that he supports the retention of Bransford, but thinks Shrewsbury EOC should be closed. Sir Michael Spicer MP said he was "broadly sympathetic" to our proposal, but along with Parliamentary Candidate Harriett Baldwin, would be submitting their own proposals at a later date.
