I do believe you’re getting somewhere JAS or so it seems. Well done and thanks for all your hard work and perseverance on behalf of those who need all the help they can get. Xxxx
Hi sassy was quite long lettter 3 pages SHOCKED was all of interesting material
Anyway just before post man come i was writing to council about pavement resurfacing contractors.
Here is what i was writing about as clearly annoyed
Dear Who Ever.
As thrilling as it is to see city council spending rate payers money in such worthy cause's
I..e footpath maintenance works resurfacing.
WHEN social care budgets for elderly sick disabled are being slashed.
Well there is know words to explain it .. So i will cut to point of my email.
Am no expert on leaflet design OR contractors but am when it comes to suffering illness and disability.
And in leaflet warning advising about upcoming works THERE was no mention of those with disabilities and access for health care professionals.
We don't live in perfect society AND as good as your contractors are at highways or pavements i think they need lesions in equality disability o and discrimination.
Now when my carer turned up at my house she was meet with hostility by ignorant contractors that TAR everyone with the same brush.
Clearly education provision is better than hostility in civilized society.
Well thats what i think.
So why as your leaflet HAVE no information advice for those with disability illness that are dependent on health care professionals visiting.
I find that discriminately and tad unprofessional.
And a help line phone number a poor excuse for information education.
When my career was abruptly told to do one WHY did your contractor not have clue given uniform SHE might of needed to get to my house given illness disability.
As to liability I hope i have in-lighted you to plight of those with disabilities dependent on others AND perhaps things will change and healthcare professionals who need to visit homes during works will be meet by understanding and even booties by your contractors.
I just hope someone more in need of there healthcare professional TO monitor disbeties administer injection AS not been told to do one by your contractors.
Well said JAS. They all need to remember that, unless they are psychic, they’ve no idea what the future holds. I can’t abide abuse to people trying to help others. Your carer should be treated with the utmost respect. You take care xxxx
Hi Jeff - That is really good news that you have a response from your MP , gives some hope. Been a long haul for you admire your persitance. Well done.
Can make a difference - Not to be political but there are huge financial problems ahead for underfunded NHS - we are not all going to go away as i feel Govt/Civil service wish - or even shut up ! Wish i thought there was a will in Parliament to sort things out , we seem to be going backwards somehow.
Best wishes to you and I hope your Father is as well as he can be , Diane
Hi Jeff , sometimes MPs can be useful in our campaigns for better services. Well done. I am going to a local meeting for adult social services at the end of this month to discuss the effects of the said cuts and how we can alter the housekeeping so the cuts are not hitting so drastic on older persons services. But our input will only have a small part to play sadly and often we feel unheard.
Hi Katie I find with cuts the follow routes enstine think SAID about least resistance .... it’s those that don’t bother wake up and rug is gone from under them.
Then stood there thinking what As happened but to late then
