A healthcare trust has said it expects around 400 jobs will go as it attempts to wipe out a £2m monthly overspend, reports the BBC.
Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust announced the cuts as part of a two-year plan aimed at eliminating its £41.2m debt.
Chief executive of the trust, Gary Walker, said: "Our focus will be on retaining essential skills and minimising job losses."
The trust manages Crawley Hospital and East Surrey Hospital.
The government is unable to make up this £2 million monthly shortfall - or indeed the £41.2 million debt - in order to save these jobs, but is apparently able to find £115 million a week for the EU despite no clear idea where the majority of this money then goes to.
