MATTHEW Guy has paid his first visit to Portland since returning as Opposition Leader as he heard first-hand from those most affected by the crisis at Portland District Health.

About 40 invited locals had an opportunity to put their concerns to Mr Guy, as well as Shadow Health Minister Georgie Crozier (a former midwife at Casterton hospital and the daughter of former State Member for Portland Digby Crozier) and State Member for South-West Coast Roma Britnell.
