Help save Winifred Kettle care home in Westhoughton

Dear Sir or madam,

I am making voices heard in Westhoughton and Bolton regarding Winifred Kettle Care home to keep this excellent home open.

Why is this important?

The closure of respite care and transfers for after care from hospital to Winifred Kettle home in Westhoughton is very important to our community

Many people have used the facilities of this wonderful care home over many years.

The services of dedicated staff from cleaners, domestics, carers and managers is exemplary.

We all may need the services in the future. The elderly population is increasing, but more homes are closing.

Many carers are elderly themselves and circumstances do not allow them to look after loved ones. We must rally round together to put pressure on Bolton councillors to change their minds.
