The Sanctuary, anger at closure of mental health service

Former service users have reacted angrily to the closure of Manchester's only overnight mental health support centre.
The Sanctuary in Hulme was the only service providing face-to-face support to people from 20:00 to 06:00 BST.
NHS bosses said they were "expanding care to a wider range" of services and other help was available.
However, one former service user said: "They're just balancing cheques and spreadsheets saying where can we cut?"

I suggest they contact Mayor Andy Burnham, as closing a much needed facility is bad news.

He’s far too busy listening to a little girl waffling on about the weather
