NHS under cyber-attack

AudlemOnline has received this message from Cheshire East

Good afternoon

As you may of seen on the national news, the NHS has today been affected by a cyber-attack.

We are currently liaising with our NHS partners to establish which organisations are affected locally. We are aware that Leighton Hospital (MCHFT) and some GP surgeries are affected, and are experiencing significant issues.

People need to be aware that they may experience issues when trying to access local health services, and that some appointments may be disrupted, until the issues are resolved.

We will share more news once we have further updates.
