Linden Avenue is a residential childrens home for young people with learning difficulties and associated challenging behaviour in Basingstoke. It is a lively, caring and happy home that thrives on encouraging the young people to develop and fulfil their maximum potential whilst havin fun! Although having recently achieved two outstanding Ofsteds it is faced with closure on May 31st 2009...this is a travesty!!!

I never thought we would see this kind of energy for the home but it is actually happening and I am just sitting here staring at the screen in complete disbelief. This movement is growing so fast it feels like the whole town is waking up to how wrong this closure is and I honestly cannot wait to see what happens when we finally force them to listen to us.

Ridiculous decision. Leave Linden Avenue alone. They have two outstanding ofsteds so why change anything??

This place does such amazing work. My cousins go here and they are actually happy. Why would you want to shut down somewhere that finally gives them a chance at a normal life.

Total incompetence closing a place that is actually helping people. Fix the real problems and stop punishing the kids.
