[Margaret Pilkington]

Yes...well we are anyway.
My husband and I have kept an eye on our elderly neighbours on either side of us.
The old lady who lived above us has now gone into a home, but prior to this we would do shopping for her, my husband did odd jobs...changing light bulbs that kind of thing, and I cooked for her 4 times a week.
The elderly gentleman who lives below us is almost 80, but relatively fit.
we keep an eye out for him.....and I cook Sunday lunch for him and usually he shares a meal with us during the week too.
We just consider this to be a neighbourly thing to do.

I think that what happened to that couple was deplorable. Immigrants can come into this country,having paid nothing at all and they get looked after......this couple were British, in need, and were badly let down by the welfare system that should have been there to protect them.
