Protest planned outside hospital

Campaigners are planning a protest outside Longridge Community Hospital on May 9.

The Help Save Longridge group says patients are facing long journeys after the ward closure.

They claim a lack of answers from Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust.

The unit shut last year over fire safety concerns, with residents warning of the ongoing impact.
