Coronavirus information

Posted on March 19, 2020 by admin

We know that this is a particularly unsettling time for those over the age of 70 and for those who are unwell, or have had to self-isolate.

Whilst many have family and friends who can rally round, we know that not everyone does. A considerable amount of work is being done right now by local charities, the Councils, and the volunteer groups that have emerged in recent days to ensure that they can provide everyone with the support they need, and also to make the best use of the people who have offered help.

Several of those organisations, including representatives of the Residents’ Association in E&E, have met to coordinate those activities and make them safe, and those involved will send round more details later in the week of what help is needed and what to do if you need help.

In the meanwhile please make your neighbours your first port of call to make sure that they are OK.

Meeting about Future of Services at Epsom Hospital

Posted on February 20, 2020 by Liz Frost

Epsom & Ewell Borough Council are hosting a meeting for Epsom & Ewell residents to enable them to hear about the proposed changes to the provision of healthcare at Epsom Hospital

This meeting will be held on Wednesday 26 February 2020 at Bourne Hall.  Doors open at 6.30 and the meeting will start at 7.00

Changes have recently been highlighted in a proposal by the NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups for the co-location of several critical and emergency care services to be delivered from a new facility at one site, at either Epsom, St Helier or Sutton.

This meeting will provide residents of Epsom & Ewell the opportunity to listen to a presentation by Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust, to hear about how the proposal may affect services specific for borough residents and to answer their questions and concerns.

Representatives of the Improving Healthcare Together Programme may be in attendance to support any questions, but this meeting is for local residents and is not part of the public consultation being undertaken by the programme.

If you would like to come to the meeting, please register at Health1@epsom-ewell.gov.uk.
