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.

This is Vera, my mum

Subject: Consultation questionnaire

Dear Margaret and Graham

You have both said that hard copies of the consultation questionnaire will be available in libraries.

I visited the library in Hawkhurst yesterday and your colleague was totally unaware of the consultation questionnaire and confirmed there were no hard copies available.

This is extremely poor. You are denying people who do not have access to the Internet the opportunity to respond.

Regards

John Porter
