Village Surgery in Askam, Furness
The petition of residents of Barrow and Furness,
Declares that the general practitioner (GP) provision within the village of Askam in Furness, known as "Parklands Surgery" must remain in operation after the retirement of the village's only current doctor on 30th June 2020; further that more than 1,500 local patients with limited public and private transport options are able to continue to access a GP easily and conveniently to maintain their personal health and well-being.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to intervene to help provide a new GP to keep Parklands Surgery open and serving local people in Askam in Furness and Ireleth.
And the petitioners remain, etc.—[Presented by Simon Fell.]
