Have your say on West Sussex hospitals merger plans

PLANS to merge Worthing and Southlands hospitals and Royal West Sussex NHS Trusts are being explained to the public in a series of meetings and exhibition stands.

Feedback received from the public, staff and patients will be analysed and discussed by the two trust boards in December, before a merger is agreed upon.

A series of stakeholder meetings with chief executives and senior doctors explaining the proposals will take place throughout November, and members of the public who are interested in finding out more can attend.

St Richard's Hospital has two stakeholder meetings.
