The last post for letters pleading to save services at Hemel Hempstead Hospital is fast approaching.
Dozens of post boxes have been set up throughout Dacorum for people to drop off letters inspired by the Save Hemel Hospital campaign's rally last month (November).

At The Big No, held in Hemel Hempstead town centre, hundreds of people penned hear
tfelt letters to Prime Minister Gordon Brown begging him to step in over changes to the town's NHS services.

The boxes will be emptied on Tuesday, December 9, and then delivered in a giant bundle to Number 10 by Hemel MP Mike Penning.

More than 760 letters pleading for a rethink on decisions made about the hospital, including replacing A&E with an urgent care centre, have already been added to the collection.

Campaigner Jan Maddern said: "If everybody who wants to show their support for this campaign wrote a letter and dropped into one of the boxes, we will have thousands to take to Number 10."
