Call You and Yours: The Junior Doctors' Strike

You and Yours

Available for over a year

Today: we're asking if you've been affected by the junior doctors' strike - whether you're a patient or if you're striking yourself. Ring 03700 100 444 or email [email protected] and please leave us a phone number. The first all-out doctors' strike in NHS history has begun in England. At 8am this morning, thousands of junior doctors walked out - not just from routine appointments, but from emergency care. They're protesting at the imposition of a new contract from the summer - and this is the first time A&E, maternity and intensive care have been hit. Have you had a cancellation? Are you struggling to get emergency care? Or are you a medical professional on strike? We want to hear from you. The phone number to call is 03700 100 444. E-mail you and yours at BBC dot CO dot UK, text 84844, or tweet using the hashtag #youandyours.
