People with Dementia and or Alziemers are being left with needs and no care living alone, despite them being one of our most vulnerable in society, one expample is Patricia aged 69 years of age living in Tameside alone, was assesed by the authorities and they decided she needed no care at all despite when she lived just 2 miles away and under Manchester city council she needed an extensive support package, solicitors fighting the case say this case will proceed to court.

Please sign this petition in support of improved care services in Tameside.

Another example of how the most vulnerable in our society are having a tough time under the policies of the Coalition Government.

My heart goes out to Patricia. Its sickening that they just leave people on their own like this when they clearly cant cope. Sort it out Tameside.

Its getting harder every year to get any help from the council. They tell you there is no budget but then waste money on other rubbish. Poor woman.

Absolute disgrace how they treat the elderly round here. My auntie is in the exact same spot and nobody answers the phones at the council office.
