In October the Council will consider steps towards closure of Norbury Dementia Resource Centre on Barnsley Road.
Objections were made by carers and health workers in March when the proposals to close the city’s three dementia day centres were included in the Council’s budget.
The Council have included questions about dementia care in the Social Care consultation, which will go to Council’s Cabinet on 17th October. At this meeting Councillors will decide whether to consult on closing the resource centres. If so, there will then be 6 weeks of formal consultation before the final decision is made.
