The hospital is great and with a larger community now partially due to the new university enlargements and housing. Getting to Calderdale not for out lying areas Think Hard before you do this , think of future expenses incurred in doing this as against keeping HRI especially as money has been spent with new windows etc(Huddersfield, 2017-10-04)

We need our hospital and i do not believe anyone has a right to close it when we pay for it. We are a major town with a large population and university but not a hospital ludicrous idea.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

Huddersfield NEEDS it’s own Hospital(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

With an increase in population , both in housing , students to uni , overcrowded roads and at least 3/4 of an hour to any other hospital , a generation of much older people living longer , many more children in overpopulated schools , how can anyone see any sense in reducing HRI hospital , this is a crisis waiting to happen , no wonder it looks like it`s all down to finances .(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

Calderdale Royal will never cope with the increased volume.Travel is to it is out of the question.Huddersfield is to big to lose its hospital.The CCG have refused to listen to the views of Huddersfield residents.(BRIGHOUSE, 2017-10-05)

These plans are detrimental to health care in Kirklees. The management and supervision is incompetent and unprofessional.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

We want and need our hospital(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

I categorically feel we need the A&E and HRI to stay in situ in Huddersfield. We are a growing community along with a large University campus.The bypass into Halifax and into Barnsley are horrendous whichever time of day you travel; if you depend on public transport for my family it takes 2 or 3 buses each being a very long journey especially if disabled like i am.
I dread to think what would occur if the road was blocked or diversions where put in place.
Please save our local hospital and A&E ..

Absolute shambles, They must GO now before they screw the whole of OUR NHS up(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#628
These changes do not make sense and keep changing. Huddersfield is a large town and needs much accident & hospital provision - not a downgrade. We cannot travel on public transport, congested roads, to another town.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#629
This decision is both ludicrous and dangerous!(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#632
We need both hospitals. I live equidistant between the two it takes 10mins to Huddersfield and up to 40 to get to Halifax. The new road system will not make any difference and where are all these extra people to park you can't do that now and there is no extra space to build extra parking. All this is just because of Calderdale debt.(Brighouse, 2017-10-05)

I have no confidence that the NHS Foundation Trust, Greater Huddersfield and Calderdale Clinical Commissioning Group have the best interests of the people they are supposed to serve in mind. Huddersfield is a large town, covering a large area and many outlying villages. Huddersfield is a University town, and home to a large football club. Huddersfield needs its own A&E and fully functioning hospital. The residents of Huddersfield deserve a competent Commissioning Group who holds Huddersfield residents, full-time and term-time, and visitors needs at the heart of future plans. I do not trust the current Group to make a properly informed and balanced decision as they appear to have made the decision without considering all the facts.(Holmfirth, 2017-10-05)

Halifax is not big enough to serve both areas we need both which as been shown in the past.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

Huddersfield is far too large a town with an ever rising population to be denied its own hospital with full A&E provisionLives should come before money

How the CCG are practicing doctors beggars belief

I agree(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#647
Huddersfield is a very large university town and the increasing numbers of students need a decent local hospital as well as the needs of the local people. We have already lost our maternity services among others to Calderdale too. It's disgraceful that a town as large as Huddersfield has to bail out Calderdale's PFI debt.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#648
I'm signing this petition as the plans are deeply flawed, Huddersfield needs a full service hospital. The option of developing Halifax is flawed and unsuitable to to its location and existing PFI debts(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#649
We need a functioning A & E in Huddersfield it's been proven time and again Calderdale hospital can't handle everything that's been thrown at it so far. Not only that but we are now a Premiership town, we have an ever expanding college and University and we are also the closest hospital to the M62 where a lot of accidents happen xx(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#651
I'm sick of the self-serving trying to hoodwink and degrade the general population. Huddersfield needs its A&E and the people meant to be defending the needs of the Huddersfield people have abandoned them.(Wakefield, 2017-10-05)

It is absolutely diabolical that this could have even have been considered. Many many Huddersfield people are extremely worried and upset by this awful plan.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)

We've worked too hard for our NHS for it to be squandered for the fincial gain of a few.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-05)
#676
Huddersfield is a large town that needs a hospital big enough to support the ever increasing population of the town. Why should Huddersfield loose it's hospital because of the debt from the PFI agreement at crh which was made before the 2 trusts joined together. The money that will be needed to increase capacity at crh , should be used for HRI &the people of Huddersfield. Our facilities should be getting better not worse in this day & age. How are patients &visitors expected to travel to Halifax. Families with young children, anyone with mobility problems, the elderly. I thought the CCG was there to make decisions in the best interests of the people of Huddersfield & surrounding area. Not make them worse!!(huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

I am signing because I think it is vital that a new, large hospital be built to prevent loss of life and also to stop very poorly people being forced to travel around the country to the detriment of the patient and their friends and relatives.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

ridiculous notion to close this very much needed hospital, the town is growing all the time. WE NEED HRI(Huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

I'm signing this petition because both the CCG & CHFT are out of their depth with their plans for CHFT(Huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

People who are not truthful, progressional and transparent should NOT be making decisions as big as these. We have NIL confidence in them!(HUDDERSFIELD, 2017-10-06)

I believe the people of huddersfield need their hospital. I have four young children to consider growing up in this area without a hospital is insane. The ccg and trust need to resign effective immediately(Huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

People will die if these ludicrous plans go ahead!!!! My family & I do not want to be traveling all the way to Calderdale should we need urgent medical treatment!!!(Huddersfield, 2017-10-06)

HRI saved my life and I am totally bemused by what these so-called Professionals are proposing to do with our hospital. I am also totally disgusted by the misleading information being given to the public of Huddersfield.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-07)
#703
My Dad recently died in HRI but because we live at Lindley I was able to spend 24/7 with him without worrying about travel and parking. Also my husbands life was saved by HRI and I cannot believe the destruction of staff and services that these clowns are planning - no doubt they are all nicely covered with private health plans at tax payers expense.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-07)
#704
As a larger town we need our Hri, people's life's are at risk expecting emergency services to get to Halifax at any time especially rush hour is ridiculous.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-07)

#706
I believe that Huddersfield is a large town with a large population which deserves and requires it's own Hospital and A & E department. To ask people to travel to Calderdale is a risk to lives and a theft of our services.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-07)
#708
I don't want the HRI to close(Huddersfield, 2017-10-07)
#710
Waiting lists are long enough as it is, travelling to Halifax takes a long time and is not easy for people without their own transport or unable to drive because of illness or treatments, people will die because of this. Huddersfield is growing more people moving here, more housing developments equals more people Calderdale hospital is not big enough or close enough to accommodate the growth of both towns. It’s fine for those people making these ridiculous decisions who can afford private health care but most of us cannot do this. It’s disgusting the lack of care amongst those making these decisions.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-08)
#719
I believe that a town as large as Huddersfield, with a growing University population needs a hospital which is accessible. It also near to the motorway network, which means accident victims can be treated quickly in hospital.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-10)

Our town needs the services. More schools, hotels uni buildings planned by the council. Ever more people, patients and no services. A joke.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-11)

It is essential that Huddersfield keeps it's Infirmary. It's not right to try to recoup the money owed for Calderdale by robbing the people of Huddersfield of their much needed Infirmary.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-13)

I am very concerned that the local health care will be seriously damaged, especially with an ageing demograph.(Meltham, Holmfirth, 2017-10-14)

You are putting people's lives at risk. You have had so much proof that this will not work but for some reason or other only know to yourselves you are still happy to put people at risk. What will you do when it is one of your own family or are they mot important to you also. None of you who condone this are fit for the job and as you have been warned that people will die I hope they sue you to he'll and back.(Huddersfield, 2017-10-14)

After working at HRI for 30 years on various wards & now on an acute medical unit for the last 18 months in Oldham I have an insight into the need for emergency care for many conditions. Time & treatment is of the essence! The care from paramedics in an ambulance is excellent but the many facilities ( number of people, their various specialities, machinery, access to obtaining results asap ( scanners, x ray, blood analysis), actual blood products in emergency ( transfusion etc) emergency 'crash trolley' )The above is just a&e but they also apply to wards. People can deteriorate after routine surgery & in general unexpectedly & not having the available treatment there could cost lives.
How much time would be spent in an ambulance? Many times there wasn't enough icu beds. What if a patient needs one unexpectedly or for major surgery? Will the amount double?
How big will the operating theatre area be? Double the amount so they can carry out the same amount in our ever increasing population in Huddersfield?
I would be very surprised if the above happened. Bed capacity is already very high & people waiting too long in a&e, & surgery cancelled.
Not enough beds, lack of acute care in Huddersfield, using the bypass to Halifax especially at busy times could well cost people's lives!

It is about time the powers that be got into the real world and realised that having one A&E for the whole of Kirklees and Calderdale is TOTALLY unworkable Lives will be lost as travel time will be increased and those who have furthest to travel will seriously have their lives compromised(Halifax, 2017-10-18)
