BRIGHOUSE is in line for a new all-purpose medical centre – but even before the plans are revealed concerns are being raised about some of the proposals.
A site has been identified at Birds Royd Lane, Brighouse, for the new health centre aimed at replacing the existing premises in Lawson Road, Brighouse.
The development could also mean the closure of three well-used health centres in the Brighouse and Rastrick areas.
Patients at Rastrick Health Centre, Chapel Croft, along with people registered at the Church Lane and Rydings Hall surgeries in Brighouse will be among those able to see draft plans for the centre on Wednesday between 1.30pm and 5pm at Rastrick Parish Centre and on Thursday between 1.30pm and 7.30pm at Brighouse Sports Club in Bradford Road.
Already views have been sought from patients at the Rastrick Health Centre.
Patient Mr Trevor Park, who has been registered at the centre for about 30 years, feared many people in Rastrick would not be happy about the proposals.
