Background

There is a growing number of residence moving into Havering due to an increased focused on regenerations and building of new homes. Over the years other hospitals have closed down and this increased pressure, along with more people living in the borough, is putting a dangerous amount of pressure on the hospitals with A&E services. There needs to be at least 1 new hospital with a A&E which can alleviate the pressure of the current hospitals as the level of care and waiting times is at its worst.
