Colin Lauder, NHS Lanarkshire Deputy Chief Executive, said: “As a result of the red weather warning, Police Scotland is advising the public not to travel in the affected areas between 10am and 5pm on Friday.

“We have therefore, unfortunately, had to take the decision to postpone all non-urgent outpatient clinics and appointments in the interests of safety.

“We would like to apologise for the inconvenience this will cause and reassure patients that we will reschedule appointments at the earliest opportunity.

“We will review the position throughout Friday and will issue further guidance on our public website and social media. Our health and social care colleagues are working to ensure we keep people safe and maintain essential services.”
