We have had a lot of people attending our A&Es today, with 21 people attending the Cumberland Infirmary in the last hour alone.

The resident doctors' strike continues until 7am on Wednesday, and we are asking patients to choose wisely and only to attend urgent and emergency care in an emergency.

We apologise in advance but patients who do need to attend could be waiting for extended periods to be seen and treated due to a reduction in the number of medical staff on duty.

Please remember:

- If we haven't contacted you, please come to your appointment as normal
- A&E is for emergencies only
- Keswick Urgent Treatment Centre (UTC) will be closed today but Penrith UTC remains open and ready to help you

You can see our live waiting times for A&E and Urgent Treatment Centres on our website: ncic.nhs.uk/locations/emergency-care-hub

Resident doctors began striking this morning at 7am, for 5 days, until 30 July at 7am

If we haven't contacted you, please come to your appointment as normal.

The strike means some of our services are under much more pressure than usual.

We are here for you if you need us but please consider using a different service to A&E if your condition is not life threatening, otherwise you may have a long wait. For non-urgent needs, consider:
✅ Your GP surgery
✅ Visiting a pharmacy
✅ Going to an Urgent Treatment Centre
✅ Using 111 online (includes mental health crisis support)

You can find live waiting times for our Urgent Treatment Centres (UTCs) and A&E departments on our website: ncic.nhs.uk/locations/emergency-care-hub
