Councillor calls on residents to stand up to NHS bed cuts

People in Crediton, Ottery St Mary and Axminster are being called on to oppose the NHS's plans to stop providing inpatient beds at their local hospitals.

A 12 week public consultation is underway after the proposals were announced earlier this week.

The hospital at Ottery is also to lose its minor injuries unit - leading to concerns that it'll eventually be closed down.

Local councillor Claire Wright hopes residents will come out in force to fight the cutbacks.
