Hello, my name is Katie Lister; I’m head of the communications team here at Airedale.
We’ve been working hard on our new website and are still working with some of our services to make sure the most up to date information is available to you, so please bear with us while we finish this section.
You will find some basic information below, including key information and contact details for the service you’re looking for....but in the coming weeks this will be updated to provide you a much larger information resource.
If you’re looking for general health information please go to www.nhs.uk.
Thanks for your patience.
