Here we go again. A local council has been given approval to close down a number of elderly care homes.
Of course, the council are promising to build or refurbish existing properties to replace the homes earmarked for closure.
All this at a cost of £173m.
Call me a cynic but I would like to see the council spend the money first, create the extra 100 rooms before closing the existing facilities.
Yes, you did get that right, £173m will increase the available beds from 900 to 1000.
If the council go ahead I can envisage the care homes closing, the residents moved to where ?
And then some more deserving cause will be found to use the £173m !!!
