Derek Pugh of Lydham has spent several weeks collecting signatures to save the Welsh Air Ambulance. So far his petition has reached 1200 in the Bishop’s Castle area and he is still adding many more sheets to it!
Today Derek presented Lib Dem Health spokesman local Shropshire Councillor Heather Kidd with his results so far.
Cllr Heather Kidd said today ” I am delighted to receive Derek’s hard work and will make sure that Shropshire’s Health and Adult Social Care Scrutiny is aware of it. They agreed to take part in the consultation when it finally materialises. I will also contact Healthwatch Shropshire so that they also take this strength of feeling into account”
