  10. Plans put forward for A&E improvementspublished at 14:40 British Summer Time 28 April 2021

    Local Democracy Reporting Service

    Plans have been put forward to move and expand a county's A&E department.

    The multi-million-pound work would see the relocation of the A&E department at Worcestershire Royal Hospital in Worcester and the creation of a new ‘emergency village’ on the site.

    The plans, which have now been submitted to Worcester City Council for consideration, were drawn up after £15 million was made available to Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust for improvements in urgent care facilities in the city.
