Stockton Borough Council’s Cabinet met last night to consider a report into the future of Parkview home. There was a strong showing from members of the public and valuable contributions were made by Cllr Steve Walmsley (TIA) and Peter Brennan (VPRA). The Cabinet decided to go out to consultation on the home’s future, to include the Adult Services and Health Select Committee making a report and taking evidence. Anyone who feels they have a contribution to make to this committee’s investigation please get in touch as we need as much evidence as possible to show why Parkview should be kept open.
I was not really very impressed that the future of a carehome was put on the agenda for a Cabinet meeting 5 days before Christmas. The way this entire process is being handled does not fill the public with confidence about what is going on.
