Stephen believes that the latest proposals to remove Accident and Emergency services at Withybush is reckless and will put lives at risk. He helped fight Labour’s first attempt to downgrade the hospital in 2005 and has challenged Welsh Labour Ministers in Cardiff about their devastating cuts. Stephen opposed the closure of SCBU and overnight paediatrics and has been an active supporter of the local campaign group. He regularly calls the Hywel Dda Health Board to account over decisions affecting local patients.
