I delivered leaflets about next week's public meeting to 100 households around Bowles Lodge this morning before seeing mum.
Many did not know about the proposal or that there was a public meeting that had been called by Roger manning.
Those that did were furious about it. I was touched by the sense of fondness that local residents have for Bowles Lodge. It is part of their community and they will fight to protect it. Good for them!
The legal process to save Bowles Lodge is over but the spirit of Bowles Lodge lives on!

- This blog is about a campaign I led to prevent Lancashire County Council closing the care home my Mum lived in. We lost our case in the High Court but decision-makers at local and national level were made aware of the devastating consequences of moving elderly people - no matter how carefully it is done. Mum was moved and, sadly, died eight months later. The blog is dedicated to her precious memory. Love you Mum.
