Please support us in Ceredigion in West Wales. Our Council is seeking to close residential homes or pass them to private providers to save money. The Council run homes are very good and provide excellent care for people who have been disabled by stroke, arthritis, polio and mild memory problems but are not in need of dementia care. The Council is considering replacing the current provision with extra care flats (they can get a grant for that from the Welsh government) and dementia beds. We accept that such places are needed but they do not suit the sort of elderly person who has remained acute and intelligent but cannot physically look after themselves. We need to keep our care homes too.
