Update on Rayner Green

Please see below for an update from Councillor Tony Goldson regarding the Rayner Green Centre:

'Following talks with the CCG and Social care. There is no immediate plan to close the Rayner Green facility.
This model of care is well respected and will continue for the immediate future, but of course to remain sustainable, affordable and using up to date best practice, will develop over time.'

On top of the devastating news that the Patrick Stead hospital is to close at the end of the month due to staff shortages,
it is possible that Halesworth may lose the excellent Rayner Green Resource Centre as well.
The Town Council and the newly formed Rayner Green Resource Centre support group are encouraging residents
and users of the centre to write to the following people in order to show their support in keeping it open.
