The East of England Ambulance Service Trust is considering plans to close its emergency operations centre in Bedford, casting aside dozens of experienced emergency call handlers and dispatchers.
All emergency calls would move to Norwich and Chelmsford, where already stretched staff have less grip of the local area.
This petition is for residents of area served by the East of England Ambulance Service Trust to express their concern about the potential closure of Bedford EOC.
It calls on the House of Commons to urge the government to ensure that the Bedford EOC does not close and that dispatchers and other emergency call-handlers remain in Bedfordshire.
