Campaigns
Benjamin Court Campaign
Benjamin Court was a Reablement Unit in Cromer to prepare people for going home after a stay in hospital. Not everyone can go straight home and so this was a valuable resource for North Norfolk. This was closed last year and the Benjamin Court Campaign was started by the North Norfolk TUC Group which the Green Party has supported from it’s initiation.
The Campaign is at a critical stage as the ICB has decided to hand this part of Benjamin Court back to NHS Property Services for disposal. This is against the wishes of NNDC, many local Parish and Town Council and our new MP, some 4,000 signatures on a petition and the Healthwatch survey which showed the vast majority of respondents wanted it to continue as a Reablement unit.
Currently the Benjamin Court Campaign is not giving up and now is researching ways forward, as is NNDC and our MP.
