CAMPAIGNERS have until July 1 to oppose cuts to a children’s heart unit.

The planned closure of Leeds Children’s Cardiac Centre at Leeds General Infirmary has prompted anger throughout West Yorkshire.

Huddersfield children with heart conditions are treated at the centre.

Earlier this week the Examiner revealed that there were inaccuracies in the report which was used to decided its future.

One Yorkshire MP branded it flawed and questioned its credibility.

Sara Matley, a consultant clinical psychologist who lives in Edgerton, is highlighting the campaign in Huddersfield.

The public consultation runs until July 1 and people can sign a petition opposing the unit’s closure at www.chsf.org.uk/sign-our-online-petition or write to Sir Neil McKay, Chair of the Joint Committee of Primary Care Trusts, NHS East of England, 2-4 Victoria House, Capital Park, Fulbourn, Cambridge, CB21 5XB.
