At the Council Meeting yesterday evening it was reported that the Town Council had warmly welcomed the announcement from the Dorset CCG regarding the ambulance car service.
Over the last two years the Council has made every effort to use its influence to preserve the paramedic car as a life-saving service for local residents. Many hours have been spent by councillors and officers attending meetings and writing letters to our local MP, Dorset Council, the NHS and the Ambulance Trust.
The Council would like to thank every member of the local community who added their voice in support of this outcome. Residents and councillors working together have made it very clear that the ambulance car is an essential part of local healthcare provision which must be protected.
