Save the Forward Centre
Reverse their decision to impose budget cuts on Health and Social Care in Local Authorities
Why is this important?
The Forward Centre was purpose built 35 years ago as a base for adults with physical disabilities to meet others who faced similar problems and encourage each other to try things they had never thought of doing
Many of the activities require specially trained staff to assist people with a wide range of disabilities often caused by accidental injuries or long term illness
The Social Work Services are having to make cuts of £100,000 to their annual budget and the only way open to them is buildings or staff. If the staffing levels are reduced the service to the members will suffer so they have decided to demolish a perfectly sound building
