Save the DGH Campaign Group formed in 2006, ably led by Chairperson, Liz Walke, a concerned Mum worried about what was happening to local health services. She was strongly supported by medics, businesses, community and church leaders, as well as cross party groups who were also worried enough to campaign publicly alongside her to protest against NHS leaders at Eastbourne District General Hospital removing local Obstetrics and other essential Core Services. The difficult decision to close the campaign group was made by non-political members of the group and you can read Liz Walke's closure announcement HERE. This website will also be closing in due course.
