Hope Hospital has now been re-named as Salford Royal Hospital with the new building to be called the Hope Building. Richerman 17:52, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hope Hall: anything left ??

The history section says about Hope Hall: "Some of the original Victorian buildings remain at the centre of the site, but these are to be replaced by a new development, commencing early 2007".
This sentence needs rewriting/deleting. Can anybody with the local knowledge say what's happened (or is happening) to H.H.? --Jotel (talk) 08:12, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

I think the sentence actually referred to Victorian hopital buildings rather than being anything to do with Hope Hall. Some of them are still in use but I've reworded the sentence now anyway. Richerman (talk) 10:28, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Service changes

"Under new proposals by the Greater Manchester Strategic Health Authority, Salford Royal has lost its maternity and neonatal services".
This does not read right: if some services have been lost, 'new proposal' are no longer proposals. Could someone more familiar with the subject provide a more suitable wording, making clear what was done, and what is still a proposal? And provide supporting references, as what's listed under "Making It Better" is too general?--Jotel (talk) 15:10, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
