Health chiefs in mid and south Cheshire are set to cut more than £20 million from their budgets while transforming care in the community.
NHS South Cheshire CCG – which covers Crewe, Nantwich, Middlewich, Sandbach and Alsager – is aiming to cut £10.5 million from its budget by March 31 2020.
Nantwich families face a 3.99% rise in Council Tax as Cheshire East Council bids to find £100m savings.
The announcement means many face significantly larger tax bills in 2017-18, and follows a 3.75% increase in April this year.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
