Went to coffee yesterday morning with the people at the Whittlesford sheltered housing scheme and we had a long discussion about the warden scheme - with a few discursions into the problems of local footpaths and their state, and some comments about my tie.A lot of very sensible points made by some very worried people, about the value of the warden support in the community, and its flexibility, which I will raise in the next few days at the district council, as I was asked to do.
What I would like to see is whether the warden role can be expanded - perhaps in discussion with the primary care trusts who are looking for services to commission - so that the link between warden and local community is kept. It isn't an easy circle to square, but it is worth the try.
