On Friday 6 October, we were pleased to welcome Lucy Frazer, the Member of Parliament for South East Cambridgeshire, to the Princess of Wales Hospital in Ely.

Lucy Frazer MP was shown around the site by Matthew Winn, Chief Executive of Cambridgeshire Community Services NHS Trust, and Richard Dickson, the site project director. She toured the construction site for the new community diagnostic centre, heard more about our plans for the site, and also got to see some of our other services at the Ely hospital, including the physiotherapy department.

Lucy Frazer MP said: “I am delighted that excellent progress is being made at the government-funded community diagnostic hub at the Princess of Wales Hospital.

“Temporary mobile scanners will be operational ahead of the centre’s completion next year, allowing patients to receive the speedy diagnoses they need, closer to home.

“I am pleased that we are now on the front foot, expanding the health facilities available to the people of Ely.”
