X-rays hit by strike

Burnley people due to have X-rays later this month may have their appointments cancelled after radiographers voted in favour of strike action.

Members of the Society of Radiographers will take part in a four-hour nationwide strike on October 20th for the first time in more than 30 years.

Emergency care will continue to be provided but the society said pre-booked appointments and procedures may be affected.
