Lack of housing-with-care for elderly

I read with interest your article about the looming crisis in meeting the housing-with-care needs of rural elderly people (TM Wednesday 11 February). I just shook my head in disbelief when I read it.
If there is such a crisis, why knock down Broumley Court in Staindrop, particularly as the funding to rebuild it is not yet in place?
