Your Say Your Dudley

"THE proposed cuts to the funding of the St Thomas’s network are short-sighted and unacceptable. This admirable institution is helping real people with real difficulties. The amount of good they do in the area is incalculable and if the council manages to destroy this support system, we will all pay the costs due to removing help from troubled people".  − Will Duckworth

Network is helping those who are in need of help... »

"The St Thomas’s network, like any other modern organisation, needs to be providing great, quantifiable, results and superb value for money. Right now, it is not doing that and the blame lies fairly and squarely with the management."  − Bill Etheridge
