There were angry outbursts from the public during the meeting and a protest outside the council house afterwards as it was confirmed the plans were put out for consultation.Any user who wanted a day centre place would not be refused, said the city council, which has agreed to save £1.95m for 2024-25.
The meeting was interrupted and halted at one point, with one woman shouting: “You just don’t get it – you need to listen to us.”“If you’re taking the centres away, I’ve nothing to live for,” another shouted.“[My son] is frightened, he’s nervous – he just don’t know what’s happening.
“You’re all sitting there, telling us that you’re doing your best. No way.”Support for users would be provided through the remaining day centres and after staff have been consulted, any movement of people using the facilities would begin at the end of March.
“The council wants the best possible quality of life for all its citizens and their carers and as a part of this we are committed to improving the day centres for adults with disabilities,” a council report said.
“However, the council is facing a significant financial challenge.”She added that the stories revealed so far were "just the tip of the iceberg" in a project expected to last into next year. It hopes to attract more volunteers, including from the United States.
