Please add your voice to the cause and save Waitakere Hospital.
Kia ora,
We need your support and 1 minute of your time to sign the Petition.
West Auckland population is over 240,000 and yet we do not have a full scale hospital. And most astonishing highlight is that we only have 1.2 beds per 1000 people!!!! 1.2 BEDS!!!!!
Forget full scale, the Ministry of Health 'Capital Investment Committee' has deferred any upgrades to the Master Plan of the DHB indefinitely, which means we are back in the queue while the hospital continues to disintegrate.
Please add your voice to send a message to the Minister of Health that West Needs his endorsement to the Master Plan. He can do it.
You can find the link to the petition here: www.savewaitakerehospital.nz...
Please share it with your family and friends too.
Many thanks
Sunil

Let's get social
Tell us what groups you'd like to see in your area...(walking groups, coffee meet-ups, swing dancing, a family tree group - anything at all!)
Or if you are already in a great group, share it here for others to get involved.
