WE are very pleased to learn of the excellent work done by Dr Townshend in opening up the website for the Save Our Hospital Campaign.

It is extremely important that this hospital remains open. We have had personal experience of their kindness to our daughter who was extremely ill and stayed at Waterside for a short period prior to returning to the Oncology Department at St Georges, London. We will always remember it with appreciation and feel that as much aid as can be given to this worthy cause, is very important.

We are pleased to know that thousands of people have already signed the petition to which we wish to add our names.

SIR IAN AND LADY WALLACE, High Street, Broadway.
