Public Meeting on Update of New Downe Hospital Progress

Down Lisburn Trust is to hold a public meeting on Thursday 17^th November 2005 at 7.30 pm in the Great Hall, Downshire Hospital, Ardglass Road, Downpatrick.

This public meeting will provide an opportunity to hear about work undertaken to date. With the demolition work completed, it is important to bring the public up to date with the progress of the new hospital. The Design Team have produced an impressive animated ‘fly round’ of the building which very graphically displays the scale of the building and how it sits on the site. It is important that the views of local people are taken on board and that the wider community is involved in the overall development. There will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions and talk to the Trust team.

If you have any special requirements to enable you to attend, e.g. communication support, or you want more information, please contact the New Downe Hospital Project Team on 028 44513866.

The venue is accessible for people with disabilities. Light refreshments will be served.
