I AM writing to protest about the decision made by East Lancashire Health Authority to terminate the funding for the Breast Care Nurses.

We have received a high standard of service from these ladies for individual patients referred to them for advice or counselling, also as a practice, when we received unlimited support and assistance when organising a Breast Awareness campaign.

Any pressure brought to bear over this decision would be supported by this practice.

S JOBES (Mrs), Practice Fund Manager, the Darwen Valley Practice, Darwen Health Centre, Union Street, Darwen.
