Ivy Road Care Home and Business Office Planning Application 07/00785/F Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/ivy-road-care-home-and-business-office-planning-application-0700785f.html Online petition signatures en-us Mon, 20 Apr 2026 12:52 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition ms carol ainsworth [Signature #9] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/2134546?utm_medium=rss I consider the revised planning application still does not address the concerns which were raised originally. I believe that the proposed 94 bed home will cause an unacceptable increase in traffic in this predominantly residential area.

Concerns about traffic increases. Also unsocial hours of this as care home staff have early/late shift patterns possibly disruptive for residents. NOT just the 8-9am and 5-6pm as 'assumed' here, but 6-7am, 2-3pm and 9-11pm.
2. Concerns about residents' wellbeing (as previous care worker) - too high density, not enough activity rooms, all bedrooms few communal areas
3. What do fire service think about the traffic? Need to get statement from them.

There is a need for more beds in care homes in general but there should not be so many on one site. Having worked as a care worker and a care staff co ordinator i feel that if a unit has 94 beds the residents will be being "managed" rather than being cared for. The inevitable result will be that fewer staff will be deemed necessary and residents will suffer. I also strongly agree with the points about road safety and emergency services.

Having worked as a care worker for many years in a number homes i feel that the proposed number of beds is far too high for reasons of resident welfare and staffing levels. No care home should have that many beds no matter where it is.

I am also worried about the possible increased useage in sirens from Fire Station

The access drive position should be moved away from the firestation for improved safety and to limit noise from fire engins.
