Moreland Community Health Centre Medical Service is being closed!
Protests have won a Public Meeting about the Medical Service organised
by the Health Centre for
When: Wednesday 7 July at 7.00pm
Where: Brunswick Town Hall, Sydney Road, Brunswick
The Picket outside Moreland Community Health Centre in Glenlyon Road,
Brunswick (near Sydney Road) will continue to 3pm on Wednesday. There
is a lot of community concern and outrage with the decision to close the
Community Health Center Medical Service. Well over a thousand signatures
on the petition have been collected in just a week. The petition will be
presented at the meeting!
This is an important opportunity to get more information about the
situation and an opportunity to raise your concerns. If you live or work
in Moreland, or you are client of the Health Centre, please come along.
Thanks to Lindsay Tanner, Federal MP for Melbourne, the only elected
representative for the area to issue a media release about the closure
and take a public stand on 1. 'the Board should reconsider its decision
to cut medical services' and 2. public & media representations on the
issues of public funding of community health.
I have not seen or heard of any public statement from the offices of
Kelvin Thompson, Federal MP for Wills, or Carlo Carli, State Member for
Coburg.
See the background info on my website for Lindsay Tanner's Media
Release, plus a reply to correspondence Carlo Carli sent to a
constituent about the issues. Also other documents at:
