Rejected petition Keep Castle Grange residential home OPEN!

We, the concerned staff, residents, and supporters of Castle Grange Residential Home, urgently petition Kirklees Council to reconsider the impending closure of this vital facility. Castle Grange, serving our community for a decade, provides exceptional care and support to elderly residents.

More details

Keeping Castle Grange Residential Home open is not just a matter of sentimentality; there are several compelling reasons why the government or Kirklees Council should prioritize its continued operation.

It is a moral duty to provide quality care for elderly and vulnerable citizens. Closure would disrupt their routines, potentially leading to emotional and physical deterioration.

Kirklees Council should explore alternative solutions to address their financial challenges.
