THE NHS North Hampshire Clinical Commissioning Group will hold a public consultation next week into the future of health and care services in the Alton area.

To take place on Tuesday, January 12, from 3pm to 8.30pm at Alton Maltings Centre, the event will give people who live and/or work in and around Alton an opportunity to have their say on the future of health and care services in their area.

This event was scheduled to take place from 6pm to 8.30pm but has been extended earlier into the afternoon at the request of stakeholders who felt elderly people in particular would prefer to attend the event in the daylight.
