Protestors took to the streets of Liverpool city centre in a bid to rally support for a threatened medical centre.
With weeks until the scheduled closure of Park View Medical Centre in Tuebrook, patients and campaigners took to Renshaw Street to stage a demonstration outside the offices of the NHS Cheshire and Merseyside Integrated Care Board (ICB). Thousands of patients at Park View could be transferred to alternative locations after it was confirmed the ICB had been unable to find a new provider to keep the surgery open.
Despite a lengthy campaign, the ICB said earlier this year, a tender process had been unsuccessful and a decision had been made to close Park View at the end of its current contract.
