Powys MP asks for public's help in spreading the word about health plans which threaten to make life harder

Powys Teaching Health Board's proposals to cut services across Powys threaten to make life harder and treatment more difficult to access for people who need it.

After collecting 7,930 signatures from constituents opposed to these plans, it is now vital that as many people as possible respond to the Health Board's consultation.

You can complete the consultation online, request a paper copy from your GP surgery, or attend one of the Health Board's drop-in events being held across the constituency.

If you are having difficulty accessing the consultation or finding the relevant information, please contact me or my team using the details below.

As I travel around the constituency and speak to residents on the doorstep, one thing has become clear: too many people remain unaware of the scale and seriousness of these proposals.

While door-knocking remains one of the most effective ways of engaging with constituents, we need to reach far more people before the consultation closes on January 10.

That is why I am asking for your help. Please speak to your neighbours, share information with friends and family, and encourage others to take part in the consultation. Every response matters and every voice strengthens the case against these damaging cuts.

I will also be holding three further public meetings in Radnorshire on November 26 in Llanbister from 5:30pm to 7pm, on December 4 in Llanyre from 2pm to 4pm, and on December 10 in New Radnor from 5pm to 6:30pm.

I strongly encourage you to attend.

Since these plans first emerged over the summer, I have organised seven public meetings, with more to come.

If you can help spread the word, attend a meeting, or volunteer to deliver leaflets or knock on doors, please contact me at [email protected] or call 01792 316380.

Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe MP David Chadwick
