Save the Margaret Centre

 

Save the Margaret Centre Click here to sign our petition The Margaret Centre is a specialist inpatient unit which provides end of life and palliative care. While similar to a hospice it is run by the NHS and is part of Whipps Cross Hospital. It's widely praised by those whose loved ones have spent their last days there. But when the new hospital is built, the Margaret Centre will be demolished, and the land sold for housing. The North East London Integrated Care Board (ICB) is a new health organisation which is responsible for commissioning end of life and palliative care services. It is doing a review of options for end of life care in the Whipps Cross catchment area. The options will be put to us - the public - in a public consultation in the Autumn 2023   Action4Whipps is campaigning for the ICB to include in the options the re-provision of the Margaret Centre on the new Whipps Cross Hospital site. But there's a real risk it won't be one of the options. If that happens, we'll lose the Margaret Centre.
