In April 2014 Staff at Hawkwell Court in Colvin Gardens, Chingford planned to shut the facility, which offers long-term stay for older patients suffering from mental health problems and learning disabilities, down. It was saved from closure a decade ago after relatives of service users and Chingford MP Iain Duncan Smith intervened.
In April 2014 as part of the redevelopment of Goodmayes Hospital it closed and proposed to demolish the Goodmayes Hospital Staff Social Club, provoking a protest from Mr Fin Robinson. He was supposed to hand the keys back but said he will remain inside, with the doors chained shut, “until they do the right thing”.
