The campaign has been launched by 84-year-old Ilkley resident Greg Robinson, who says better bus services are essential for people who rely on public transport to access healthcare. Following her death in February, he approached Ilkley Moor Medical Practice, Addingham Medical Practice and the Clarke Foley Community Hub, which agreed to host his petition calling for all weekday 62 bus services between Ilkley and Keighley to serve Airedale Hospital. The lack of a direct daytime bus service to Airedale Hospital can make attending medical appointments stressful and costly. “Thank you to Ilkley Moor Medical Practice, Addingham Medical Practice and the Clarke Foley for assisting me in collecting so many signatures. Residents wishing to support the petition are asked to email: 62petition@gmail.com with their name and the statement: “I Support the 62 Bus Petition.”
