An Acute health trust report released in 2006 suggested that George Eliot Hospital should be downgraded and some of its services moved to the new University Hospital Coventry in the Walsgrave area of Coventry which is nearby. The report generated local opposition and led to the formation of a local protest group ‘Nuneaton People’s Protest Group', which was successful in fighting off the ward closures. In May 2010, the Hospital announced that it was closing two wards, Lydgate and Romola, part of a new series of cost-cutting measures.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“The American West is just arriving at the threshold of its greatness and growth. Where the West of yesterday is glamorized in our fiction, the future of the American West now is both fabulous and factual.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“I have often inquired of myself, what great principle or idea it was that kept this Confederacy so long together. It was not the mere matter of the separation of the colonies from the mother land; but something in that Declaration giving liberty, not alone to the people of this country, but hope to the world for all future time. It was that which gave promise that in due time the weights should be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and that all should have an equal chance.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“A fixed image of the future is in the worst sense ahistorical.”
—Juliet Mitchell (b. 1940)
