Residents say NO to plan to move hospital services to Dover
Local people are backing the Lib Dem campaign to STOP hospital services being moved out of our area.
New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Folkestone and Hythe will include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of Broadmead, Cheriton, East Folkestone, Folkestone Central, Folkestone Harbour, Hythe, Hythe Rural, New Romney, Romney Marsh, Sandgate & West Folkestone, Walland & Denge Marsh.
The electorate will be reduced to bring it within the permitted range by transferring out the North Downs area in the north (North Downs East and North Downs West wards), along with the parts in the Borough of Ashford (Saxon Shore ward), primarily to the reconfigured constituency of Ashford.

I am continuing to receive a huge response to my campaign to highlight the possible changes at the Royal Victoria Hospital. In some cases, entire blocks of flats and roads appear to have signed. There is most certainly a very strong view that the services provided by the Rehab wards should not be moved to Buckland at Dover. Understandably, local people believe that this will impose travel pressures on relatives and that it will be another loss of an important local service.
Lib Dem campaigner Peter Carroll has added his voice to calls for action on the drunken behaviour shown on the BBC last night.
