Save Hammersmith & Fulham Hospitals is a resident-led campaign group formed in July 2012 to fight the proposed closure of hospital services in Hammersmith & Fulham. Following the announcement on 2 July that the Joint Committee of North West London Primary Care Trusts was consulting on hospital closures across west London, a group of over 250 concerned residents attended a meeting chaired by Andy Slaughter, MP for Hammersmith, and decided to launch this campaign.
