REGARDING the controversy over the location for the new health centre in Darwen and the comment by the Primary Care Trust's director of corporate development, Mr David Brunskill that "The public in Darwen is behind us" (LET, December 17), he must have his head in the sand.

For I have not heard anyone say that they want the new health centre to be built behind the Leisure Centre.

Was it any use asking for opinions on the matter, when it was obviously cut and dried?
