Building around Coate Water will damage our health.
Hospital spokesman Chris Birdsall said that the hospital was designed to take full advantage of the stunning Wiltshire countryside.
NHS Estates Improving The Patient Experience said: "Prolonged exposure to natural views not only helps to calm patients, but also can have positive affects on other health outcomes and shorten recovery periods.''
So they are now proposing to surround the hospital with a building site for five to ten years, cover fields with concrete and ruin the last remaining fields we have followed by congestion and pollution from the increased traffic.
We must not let this happen!
