Cancer Service Centre In Kendal

EDM number 2325 in 2007-08, proposed by Timothy Farron on 22/10/2008.
Categorised under the topic of Health services.

That this House notes with concern that cancer patients in South Cumbria are forced to travel to either Carlisle or Preston for cancer treatment; is deeply concerned at the effect round trips of up to 100 miles can have on the health of cancer sufferers and their families; welcomes the announcement made by NHS Cumbria that they are working with other primary care trusts in the region to assess the feasibility of a new cancer unit in Kendal; and calls on the Government to provide funding for a new cancer service unit at the Westmorland General Hospital in Kendal.

This motion has been signed by a total of 16 MPs.
