IN RESPONSE to the amended hours of the Minor Injury Unit, I would like to know how on earth patients with no cars will get to A&E at Winchester or Basingstoke Hospitals.

Buses are infrequent and non existent at weekends.

Trains to Winchester require a change at Basingstoke and Basingstoke needs a bus journey to get to the hospital from the station.

This would be the journey for patients with wounds or broken limbs!

The simplest solution for many would be to call an ambulance, putting pressure on an already overstretched service.

What an absolute disgrace this is for a growing town.
