URTHER to the article concerning the closure of Knowle House residential home, which is indeed a crisis for relatives of residents.

I should like to add my appreciation and thanks to the staff of the home who have cared unstintingly and with great good humour, over many years, often working long hours with little financial reward; because they really did 'care'.

They are too many to mention by name, but I would like to thank them, have them know how much they have been appreciated; and wish them all well in their future employment.
