Pine Lodge's Future


I have read, on the internet, that several care homes in Belfast have been threatened with closure. This threat has come under the guise of the government's "comprehensive spending review", thanks, no doubt, to Mr Brown; and those charged with ultimate responsibility happen to be the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust, their head honcho being William McKee, Esq., CBE.

One of those residential homes is Pine Lodge, at 186, Belmont Road, Belfast. It is opposite Strathearn Girls' School.

This concerns me. Cognizant of this, I respectfully urge all those who care to write to Mr McKee expressing their support for these facilities in Belfast.
