Cool Re: Secret location for drug and alcohol centre
If this Chris Dixon was so sure that there would be no public outcry then he should name the place NOW.

Not that it will affect me. I live in Darwen. But once one local authority rides roughshod over the people’s wishes it could always spread to other authorities.

Why not join it with Maundy Grange as it will probably be dealing with the same people.

If they are advertising for staff already, it looks as though the location wont need any refurbishment - this strengthens the case that it will likely be Acorn Health Centre

Might be why the Great one's gaff is for sale Cashy!!!!

I cant understand the various quotes in the Telegraph to be honest. "Britters" says he wants the PCT to "come clean" and announce where the place is that they have "found", and yet the spokesperson for the PCT seems to indicate that the Council are involved and suportive of the location?

QUOTE

Val Robertson, NHS East Lancashire corporate affairs director, said: "We have identified a property that we are looking at for this treatment centre and we are awaiting a decision now from Hyndburn council.

"We have had a letter of general support from the council, subject to the normal planning requirements for a change of use.

Shouldnt be up to the council to name the location. If PCT are that confident about it there wont be trouble. Besides it wouldnt take long to find out just follow their "clients" to the front door.

Re: Secret location for drug and alcohol centre
this is supposed to be a free and democratic country,why are you not allowed to tell us,if other councillors are putting pressure on people not to say, is this some kind of bullying or what laws are they using to keep everybody quiet.this is a bit fishy
