My LA has just withdrawn funding for both CAB (face to face meetings) and home start.
I do not understand how they could do this to two very important services especially as ALL council properties in the area have had/are about to have new windows and front+back doors fitted (mine included). I actually phoned them when I got the letter and asked why I needed new windows as there was nothing wrong with the ones we had and I was told they were updating all their housing stock and it wasn't a choice.
I know it is different departments but its still the same council and it seems wrong they can 'waste' money on windows/doors but then cut services that are so important to people.Last year they also reduced the number of taxicard trips per person too which seemed very unfair.
AIBU to think they are spending money on unnecessary things and then sacrificing important services?
