Petition update, 21 November 2008

More details from petition creator

The result of the public consultation by the former Morecambe Bay Primary Care Trust (in 2004) was clearly in favour of new and improved facilities on the existing Ridge Lea site but unfortunately there was insufficient funding at the time. Now that the funding is available, we feel that Lancashire Care should honour this conclusion, rather than consider a new, Greenfield site (Royal Albert Fields).

The proposed site will also severely impact on traffic, is poorly served by public transport, and has no amenities (particularly shops) in the vicinity.

We believe that a large amount of tax payers’ money is being wasted developing plans for a new facility that is poorly conceived, has opposition from residents, and the Head of Planning for the City Council, and should be developed on the land that already currently houses the Mental Health facilities.

We would like the Prime Minister to instruct the NHS Trust to build on the Brownfield (Ridge Lea) site.
