Stop Cardiff from getting the MTC over Morriston! 15:12 - Nov 21 with 564 views CopperJack

This is risking the health of south west Wales to make Cardiff even wealthier. Make a stand. Fill it out. One day, it may be you or your loved ones who need this centre and have to travel to Cardiff who have 2 within the space of 30 minutes.


The thing is, the likelihood of a major trauma happening in Cardiff is more probable because of the bigger population.

No brainer for me...vote for Cardiff.... :thumbup:

Lets be honest, a brain unit in Swansea would have been the biggest waste of money of all time.

It says that Morriston should be become a major trauma center, so I do not see the problem here.

Rivalry aside, I believe Cardiff should get priority due to numerous factors.

a) Due to population catchment within the Cardiff area, with quick access to the Valleys (A-470), and close proximity to Newport, Vale of Glamorgan and Bridgend.
b) Swansea, even though a city, has a smaller population catchment area.
c) Transport links are very similar for both Cardiff and Swansea, but Cardiff are better equipped in terms of air capacity (Air ambulance) than Swansea Moriston.
