Re: Where I am
 

I have obviously been misinformed! Just looked it up on the internet -glad to see the place being so well used...
Is the old Accrington Victoria hospital still being used? I know they built a special Geriatric unit as my grandad went there for treatment...

Re: Where I am
 

There is a minor injuries unit, GP ward and a few other departments, it has been scaled down to the very minimum which is a shame as people have to travel out of town for treatment:(
