Service social touché en Angleterre

Cash crisis forces children's hospice to cut back
11:57am Wednesday 26th November 2008

Plans by Naomi House Children’s Hospice to extend its community nursing service to Wiltshire have been put on hold as it fights to get £5.7 million back from an Icelandic bank account.

The hospice, based in Sutton Scotney in Hampshire, has suspended the hospice at home service which had been operating for a year in Hampshire.

The plans to extend the service to other counties, including Wiltshire, was due to happen early next year.

The service works by putting in nursing staff into sick children’s homes in times of emergency.

So far the service has helped 25 families of children who have terminal or life limiting illnesses.

The hospice itself remains open and is unaffected.

The hospice had invested £5.7 million in the British based Icelandic bank Kaupthing, Singers and Friedlander Bank, which went bust last month.

The money is frozen and a meeting of creditors will take place on Monday (December 1) in London.

Professor Khalid Aziz, chairman of Naomi House, said: “As a result of a situation not of our making we cannot deliver a vital service that we usually provide.

“We simply cannot accept that the Government will let this situation continue and we urge that they give assurances that our funds will be returned in full immediately.”

Je n'en sais rien (ce n'est pas Icesaver de Landbankski qui est chez ING ?). Mais peu importe (on se comprend : pas pour le Children's Hospice), c'est le fait que des asbl et autres organisations psycho-medico-sociales qui sont touchées par le crash Kaupthing que je voulais souligner. Ce post était destiné à l'asbl Les Sentiers, mais il s'est retrouvé ailleurs par la magie du web...
