A FEW days ago I signed the online petition to save Poole A&E and little did I know that in a few days I would be here with my husband.

He had a fall in the school playground with our grandson playing football and sustained a dislocated shoulder.

The staff at A&E were brilliant and were kindness itself.

Many thanks to them all and to the consultant Mr Peter Richmond who sorted my husband out.

Please I beg everyone who reads this to sign the petition to keep the A&E at Poole.

I would not have liked the long journey to Bournemouth with my husband in so much pain.
