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.

Mum's friend makes it to New Zealand

Kent Messenger 2nd December 2011

Mum's friend Louise left Bowles Lodge on 24th November to fly to New Zealand to live with her daughter. I am sure she was totally unaware that her departure sealed the fate of mum's case. A strange string of events! Mum did not have an opportunity to say goodbye but it is wonderful to hear about the reception she has received.
