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

This is Vera, my mum. "Why did Kent County Council move me out of Bowles Lodge?"

The plot thickens

I visit mum who has now been admitted to room 20 in Ward 22. The nurses are a little puzzled why she is there - as they were when she was taken from A&E the night before following X-rays - to the Acute Assessment Unit. The receiving nurse there asked "What are we assessing?".

Good question that needs to be answered.
