Pensioners campaign to keep their on site wardens
At the end of 2005 a small group of tenants of sheltered housing got together to discuss their concerns about Worcester Community Housing proposed changes to the wardens service.
These changes meant that the tenants would loose their on site wardens which raised many concerns and worries for them. Meetings were held at sheltered schemes within Worcester and it was felt that the tenants that we spoke to had strong feelings about the change. The small group has now grown to 80+ tenants attending regular meetings and continues to increase.
As a group we have now become affiliated members of the National Pensioners Convention and will continue in our campaign to the proposed changes and any other concerns pensioners of Worcestershire may have.
