Last week the Ledbury Reporter reported that Ledbury's ambulance station was under threat after UNISON secretary Andy Kibble had told a public meeting that "that bosses are “seriously looking” at closure."

After talking to Murray MacGregor, Communications Director of  West Midlands Ambulance Service, the Ledbury Portal can confirm that this is not the case.

Mr MacGregor: "Can we be absolutely clear that there are no plans to close Ledbury ambulance station. We might move it as the current site is not ideal and nor is the building, but please be assured that there will be an ambulance facility in Ledbury for the foreseeable future."

Herefordshire Council has responded to recent press reports regarding the development of Ledbury Cricket and Ledbury Football grounds by Bovis Homes by stating that " the council's policy continues to be to protect the cricket/football grounds from development."
