The 'Future Fit' hospital reconfiguration project has proved controversial and has been inundated with challenge. There have been reports of a leaked document revealing that the initial estimated cost of £312m for the reconfiguration has risen to £498m.

An end is nowhere to be seen; meanwhile there is growing tension and unease between neighbouring communities and A&E services in Shropshire are at breaking point. This solution is ideal, making sense geographically and will put an end to uncertainty.
