Not open all hours

ON JULY 1, overnight A&e facilities will no longer be available in North Somerset. This will leave more than 200,000 people with the prospect of travelling 25 to 30 miles to be treated, or having to call out the underresourced out-of-hours doctor.

In the summer there are thousands of tourists in the area. What will happen if they need medical help?
