Build a New Royal Berks Hospital

Our NHS staff at the Royal Berkshire Hospital are working very hard to deliver care for their patients. But staff and patients alike are being let down by the out-of-date facilities and cramped conditions.

We cannot wait any longer for an NHS that's fit for purpose. Labour will deliver a new RBH fit for the 21st century, 

What has actually happened...

28th July, 24 days after the election, the Labour Chancellor announced a review of the whole new Hospital programme, RBH said “More delays to providing facilities that are fit for the future will be disappointing news for our patients, staff and our wider community." On the 20th September the paper confirming this was sneaked out without announcement.

We call on Yuan Yang to keep her promises, stand up to her party and stand up for residents, and join with us and fight for a new hospital to replace the RBH.
