What is the Future of the Alex Hospital's A and E Service?

This week's resignations of 4 A and E consultants at the Alex. follows years of uncertainty about the future of their department. Save the Alex and Bromsgrove Liberal Democrats have been concerned about the provision of local hospital services for some time and Save the Alex are organising a quiet protest gathering at 9,30 on 25th February outside the Kidderminster Hospital where the Trust is holding its next meeting. Do use this opportunity to show your support for the Alex.

Bromsgrove District Council prefers to cut Artrix funding rather than increase council tax.

The Artrix , Bromsgrove's popular community arts centre, has lost half its Bromsgrove District Council funding (£60,000) and is in danger of having to reduce its youth work at a time when youth services throughout the County are being cut. Last week Bromsgrove District Council voted virtually unanimously to freeze its council tax precept! They also chose to take £63,000 from reserves. Why? There have been no local objections to funding the Artix and residents are generally not against a small council tax increase if it is used for the community. We suggest that councillors think again about how they spend our money and that voters allow a Liberal Democrat councillor into the council to be the voice of good sense!.
