to take funding away from such a vital service would then leave other services ill equiped to manage these issues, as the staff are trained in these issues.
I recommend that Blackburn and Darwen consider there funding towards this vital service, as I feel they have not taklen into account how this will effect other services, such as children's services.
Please reconsider!
