Bus Route changes

Susan from Frankleigh Park

Very concerned to see that the changes in Routes being looked at for Frankleigh Park, currently Route 5, will mean that there will no longer be buses going through Glenpark Avenue, this seems to me to be a real detriment to the people who live there.

Respite care is a great short break option for a family member or loved one that also helps give carers some time out to recharge the batteries. There are a range of circumstances which might require respite overnight or support for day care.

It could be needed after a hospital stay or just as a little extra support for caregivers. Respite care ranges from a few days and even up to a few weeks. A loved one, who lives in their own home, will have their short respite stay in one of our village centres.
