General (General discussion, talk about anything.)
Hello franny, just read your comments regarding looking after old relatives. My mother who is nearly 90 has been staying with us over here for the past 3 months and I dont know what to do or who to contact for help when she has to return to the UK later this month. Ideally if I could get someone to visit her once a day just to make sure that she is alright, it would be great. She will not have a home-help in the house although I have a number of friends that can run errands and do a bit of shopping for her. The only problem is that most of them are ex-bouncers, and because of their size frighten the life out of the other elderly residents when they walk down the street. You mentioned Help the Aged, but I dont know if they have an office in Wigan, but will find out. Any further info. is more than appreciated. Best wishes Paul.
