PROBLEMS facing the Royal United Hospital in Bath were the subject of a visit to the hospital by west Wiltshire MP Andrew Murrison on Thursday.

Dr Murrison arranged to meet the hospital's new chief executive Jan Filochowski to hear plans in place to improve patient services.

Other visits lined up for the day included a trip to Voluntary Action West Wiltshire at Bridge House, in Stallard Street, Trowbridge and the chance to learn more about the work of the town's Citizen's Advice Bureau.
