Portsea Action Group expresses concern over proposals for Vascular Surgery Services

On the 07/09/2011 the Portsmouth LINk delivered a short presentation about its purpose to the Portsea Action Group (PAG). The presentation was well received and there are plans to maintain contact with this important community group. During the presentation the overwhelming majority of the group expressed concern over the proposed plans for Vascular Surgery Services in the Portsmouth area. PAG were informed that the concerns they had expressed would be put to the LINk Steering Group. Since the presentation the LINk Steering Group have been briefed about PAG's concern and have agreed to include Vascular Surgery Services as an item to be prioritsed in the forthcoming prioritisation of LINk work stream issues. This means that should Vascular Surgery Services be placed at the top of the LINk's list of priorities the LINk will be conducting a structured community engagement programme to consolidate the information from PAG and the other groups who are concerned about this issue.
