41-year old Joanne has lived in a home for people with learning difficulties for five years, since her mother became too unwell to care for her full-time at home. The local authority is to close the home because of cuts. Her mother says, “I thought I could die happy, knowing that she was being looked after in a stable place. Now, I don’t know where she will go. It took her an awfully long time to settle in. I never thought these last years would be like this. Now, I don’t know what will happen to her if anything happens to me. Where will she go?”
