I am deeply concerned by High Peak Borough Council's decision to close the Carelink service this September.
I've already been contacted by a number of worried residents and families who rely on Carelink every day. For many elderly, disabled and vulnerable people, this service provides far more than a telephone line – it provides reassurance, independence and, in some cases, a lifeline.
While the Council has outlined the staffing and funding challenges behind this decision, the fact remains that there is currently no like-for-like replacement available. That will understandably cause significant anxiety for those who depend on the service.
I have therefore requested an urgent meeting with High Peak Borough Council to seek assurances about the support that will be put in place and to ensure that no resident falls through the cracks during this transition.
I also want to thank the dedicated Carelink staff who have supported local people for many years. Their work has been invaluable and has helped countless residents remain safe and independent in their own homes.
I will continue to stand alongside the families affected, hold the Council to account and press for answers. If you or a loved one use Carelink and are worried about what happens next, please contact my office.

With the new Toy Story film in cinemas now and three daughters making sure I'm up to date on all things Woody and Buzz, I thought this was worth sharing.
If you were born between 2002 and 2011, you could have up to £2,200 waiting for you in a Child Trust Fund.
Millions of pounds remain unclaimed, so it's well worth checking.

I'm delighted to see the rollout of the new Lifelong Learning Entitlement, giving adults access to flexible student finance for short courses, modules and degrees that fit around work, family life and other commitments.
For too long, too many people have felt that further education wasn't an option for them because they couldn't commit to full-time study. That shouldn't be a barrier to gaining new skills, building confidence or pursuing new opportunities.
The Lifelong Learning Entitlement will make it easier for people to retrain, change careers, secure a promotion or gain qualifications at a pace that works for them. Whether you're returning to education later in life or looking to take the next step in your career, support will be available throughout your working life. ... See MoreSee Less

This proposal would have a serious impact not only on local residents, but also on farmers across High Peak who rely on the site to dispose of waste responsibly.
I have received a letter from the National Farmers' Union outlining their concerns about the proposed closure and the negative consequences it could have for our farming communities.
Farmers already face enough challenges without having vital local services taken away. Closing Glossop Tip risks increasing costs, creating additional burdens, and making it harder for local businesses and farms to operate.
