Plans
for new multi-million pound Berrow health centre go on show
Detailed
plans for a major new multi-million pound medical centre in Berrow
were on show for the first time at a special open evening in
the village on Wednesday evening (January 30th).
Dozens
of residents attended the meeting in Berrow Village Hall to
hear more about the proposed Berrow
Health Campus in Brent Road.
Berrow
Parish Council has recently received the planning application
from Sedgemoor District Council and held the open evening to view
residents a chance to see the plans and give their comments.
Parish
council clerk Lynn Smith told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "It was
a positive, balance meeting - we had a good attendance of over
30 people who were both for and against the scheme."
Representatives
from the project's
architects, GVA Grimley, were also at the meeting to answer questions
from the public.
The
plans are due to be decided in the next few months.
Burnham-On-Sea.com
was first to report on the scheme last summer when it was announced
there are three elements to the scheme - an additional medical
centre and pharmacy, a new elderly psychiatric day hospital to
replace Berrow's Little Court; and a brand new NHS dentist.
