Save Weston Hospital's maternity department!

Weston hospital needs your help! Our maternity department is slowly getting smaller without anyone noticing.
Our postnatal care department is now closed. Which for all of you lovely ladies who are expecting a baby soon means NO AFTERCARE:
  • NO help with breastfeeding.
  • NO bonding time with your baby.
  • NO recovery time before taking your new bundle of joy home!
  • NO help for all the first time mummys out there! Let's face it, it's not a walk in the park!
This is a service I believe we NEED in Weston. As a mother who has been lucky to have used this service a couple of years ago after a c-section in Bristol. I spent a few days back at Weston recovering after the major surgery and bonding with my new baby and also getting lots of amazing advice and tips on breastfeeding..... something of which I kept up with thanks to all of the support I had been given in Weston!

I'm due to give birth any day now and had no idea this service was no longer available.

Westons A&E department has already closed. How long will it be before the maternity department closes down all together?

Care2 says: Sign this petition now to demand the postnatal care service is reinstated at Weston Hospital!
Update #16 years ago
I started this petition only a few months ago to show my annoyance of our department closing i never though it would get so much attention.
I just wanted to send a massive thank you to everyone who has signed so far.
Our local MP is now involved and we're hoping this will help show we really do care about what happens to our maternity department.
