Grassroots group, Didcot Against Austerity, has launched a campaign to get a minor injuries unit in Didcot. The group is part of the national organisation, the People’s Assembly Against Austerity which campaigns to end cuts to public services. Minor Injury Units (MIU) are for injuries such as deep cuts, broken bones, severe sprains, minor burns and scalds. At the moment, anyone in Didcot with such an injury needs to travel to the Abingdon MIU or, for more severe injuries or life threatening emergencies, to the Accident and Emergency department at the JR hospital in Oxford. Campaigners from Didcot Against Austerity say that, with Didcot growing so rapidly, the town should have its own MIU.
