Surrey residents are being asked to join the national NHS effort to help save lives.
Workers with a wide range of different skills are urgently needed to staff the new hospital opening at Headley Court later this month.
Headley Court in Leatherhead, a former military rehabilitation facility, will re-open as a partnership response by Surrey County Council, alongside the NHS and Surrey Heartlands, to become a temporary community hospital helping to relieve pressure on our bigger, acute hospitals during the weeks and months ahead.
