Scottish Government need to take over control of the residential home to prevent 15 residents from being moved out and staff payed off at short notice
Why is this important?
Isle of Skye does not have a lot of spaces available for old people to be cared for. At the moment Home Farm has 17 residents and if the 15 residents from Budhmor are homed there it will leave only space for 3 more residents from the whole island. The staff are being made redundant at a time when the economy on the island is at an all time low.
