Please send this letter to your MP's immediately (email or post). The signatures of 200 PM’s are needed by July 6th. ________________________________________________________
Dear _______________________ This is to ask you to sign Early Day Motion 1240 'NHS Homoeopathic Hospitals'. As you may know there are four NHS homoeopathic hospitals/specialist clinics in England (The Royal London, Bristol and Tunbridge Wells Homoeopathic Hospitals and the Liverpool Clinic). Despite their names, these units provide a range of complementary and alternative treatments, not just homeopathy, fully integrated into the NHS. They make an important contribution to the health of the nation and to patient choice, offering clinically-effective and cost-effective solutions to common health problems faced by NHS patients, including many chronic, difficult to treat conditions. The homoeopathic hospitals are unique resources, highly valued by their patients, with a proud record of developing and providing safe, effective non-drug based treatments for common conditions. They have great potential to make further contributions, and to reduce the NHS's dependency on drug treatments. The combined budget of these homoeopathic units is about £5m/year, a tiny proportion of the NHS budget. Yet in the current financial turbulence affecting the NHS their future is threatened by short-term, local, financially-driven decisions by PCTs. I hope you will sign the EDM calling on the government to actively support these valuable national assets. Yours Sincerely,
|
