Our teams across our sites are continuing to provide care during the freezing conditions overnight and today, as well as heavy snow in parts of the local area. Some services may be affected, and if your appointment needs to change, we will contact you directly.

If you have not heard from us, please continue to attend if safe to do so. If you have an appointment but are unable to attend or feel unsafe travelling, please let us know so we can rearrange it for you. You can find contact information here - https://www.mcht.nhs.uk/contact-us

Our community teams are continuing to provide essential and urgent care, including home visits for patients. Some non-urgent appointments may be rearranged or offered virtually where appropriate. If this affects you, we will contact you directly.

Our Emergency Department remains open for serious or life-threatening emergencies. Please use NHS 111 or other appropriate services for non-urgent care where possible.

Thank you for your understanding and please take care when travelling.
