SIR - Every day, 275 older people choose to move into a care home. That's more than 100,000 people each year.
Research shows that during and after the holiday season more people find themselves addressing the options for care of older family members than any other time of the year.
Elderly Accommodation Counsel (EAC) is a charity dedicated to helping older people make informed choices about meeting their housing and care needs. We believe that moving into a care home can be a successful transition in a person's life, enabling them to continue living as happily and independently as their health permits.
For information telephone 020 7820 1343 or find us on the internet at www.housingcare.org.
