Anger mounts at 'ridiculous' closure of health centre despite huge demand

The NHS Norfolk and Waveney Integrated Care Board (ICB) is proceeding with the decision to shut Benjamin Court in Cromer - a reablement centre that helps people recover after hospital stays.

The ICB has said it is not financially viable to keep operating at the site and that it no longer fits its model of care, pursuing a 'home first' approach instead.

This is despite recently released statistics that show about 20pc of acute care hospital beds in Norfolk's hospitals are being occupied by people who could be safely discharged.........
