Public meeting over New Mills care home

A public meeting is set to be held on Thursday evening (February 13) over the potential closure of a New Mills care home. 

Goyt Valley House on Jubilee Street is one of seven homes that Derbyshire County Council is looking to close, citing that it needs significant work doing to it - including comprehensive re-wiring. 

The meeting will take place at St George's Church on Church Road from 7pm. 

A public consultation on the county council's proposals is currently under way and runs until 24 April. 

An online questionnaire is available to fill in at www.derbyshire.gov.uk/care-home-review, while printed copies of the questionnaire can be made available on request by phoning 01629 531307.

A drop-in session will also be held at New Mills Library on Hall Street on Friday (February 14) from 10am to 1pm for the public to give their views. 

People can also write to the Stakeholder and Engagement Team, Adult Social Care, County Hall, Matlock, DE43AG or email telladultcare@derbyshire.gov.uk to have their say.
