ANNE SNELGROVE MP joins Alan Johnson to thank staff and look to the future

Celebrating the 60th anniversary Anne Snelgrove MP said:

"One of the main reasons I wanted to be the MP for Swindon was to fight for the NHS in our area.  I believe it is one of our country's greatest achievements. A service that is available to all based on need - not ability to pay.  

"On 5 July we should take time to say thank you to the wonderful staff who look after us when we need care and attention.

"Sixty years since we founded it, Labour is changing the NHS. Our mission is to make the NHS a more personal health service, fitted to the needs of families and focused on preventing ill health as well as curing it.  That is why Health Secretary Alan Johnson has asked me to find out what you think about the NHS and how we can improve it for you.

"As your MP I can give you this guarantee.  I will always fight to improve the NHS in Swindon and work to ensure that it is fit for modern life.  

Health Secretary Alan Johnson said:

“Anne Snelgrove MP is a real advocate for the NHS in Parliament.  Please take some time to tell them what you about out Health Service.  I know Anne Snelgrove MP will certainly tell me what you think.
