100 islanders apply to opinion panel for Jersey's new hospital

More than 100 islanders have applied to join a citizens' panel looking at Jersey's new hospital so far.

The group's role will be to make sure that the views of islanders are taken into account, including their thoughts on its future location.

The panel was set up by the government earlier this month and has already seen plenty of interest, but those behind it are still encouraging people to get involved.

Anyone interested in becoming a member of the Our Hospital Citizens’ Panel can apply online here or by picking up an application form from any parish hall.

Applications close on Friday 29 November 2019.
