* Thank you for backing the campaign regarding the closure of A&E at the Lister hospital. We need this area of the Lister hospital, it must not be allowed to go, never.

We as a family have much to be grateful to the Lister and staff for a big thank you to all of you.

Mrs SMITH, Hyde Avenue, Stotfold

* When I was 64 I had a prostate operation at the Lister hospital. I went in very nervously as I had not had an operation before.

I need not have worried, because I was immediately put at ease with the brilliant nurses and staff.

I was in hospital for eight days after which I had a much better quality of life owing to the success of my operation which to this day six years later, I am still very grateful to the brilliantly run Lister hospital.

I have also had many friends and family members who have been treated at the Lister. God save the Lister.
