Marion's well used
I understand the Brighton-based operator, Sussex Community NHS, have decided the venue will shut in June 1.
Meals for the patients are cooked in its kitchen and staff and visitors use the restaurant daily.

I don’t believe it, Marion’s is well used by both staff and members of the public.
On numerous occasions I and many of my friends have eaten there and it has been full with people, including staff.
I feel sure that finance really is the problem, members of the public would not object to paying extra or having the ample portions reduced.

I shall keep a close eye on this and see what the NHS’s plans are.
