Plans for Glenside to be revealed

Residents at a Douglas care home have been invited to hear plans concerning the future of the government-run facility.

Relatives have been handed letters urging them to attend a meeting at Glenside in Douglas at 2pm tomorrow (Tuesday).

The letter says the briefing will outline future plans for social services for adults.

Senior managers at the home and officials from the Department of Social Care are being brought together to address residents and their families.

Meanwhile, North Douglas MHK Bill Henderson is to ask a question in the House of Keys tomorrow about the future of government care homes. He wants to know if any residential homes are due to close in the next twelve months.
