Resident doctors strike 17 - 22 December

Published: 11th December 2025

Resident doctors are due to take strike action from 7am on Wednesday 17 December to 7am on Monday 22 December.  

All CLCH services remain open. Please attend any appointments you have. We will contact you if your appointment needs to be rescheduled. 

Please be assured that the safety of our patients is always our top priority and we are working hard to put plans in place to ensure minimal impact on the quality and timeliness of the care you, your relative, or someone you care for receives over these days. 

Regardless of any strike action taking place, it is important that people who need urgent medical care continue to come forward. If you need medical help or advice, or you’re unsure what to do, go to NHS 111 online, unless it is a life-threatening emergency when you should still call 999.
