Concerned about cost of day centre

-

I am concerned about care cost for my daughter to attend Whitemoor Day Centre from 9-3 four days a week.

The money she gets is calculated by the Government for her personal and her wellbeing needs.

We don’t feel that the local authority should be taking money from her.

When we complained about it, they say it is the Government’s policy to take money off vulnerable people to balance the books.

As a lifelong supporter of the Conservati­ve party I think that they should stop giving taxpayers’ money to every country in the world and give it to vulnerable and disabled people first.

I am 83 years old and still paying income tax.
