PRESSURE is growing among those fighting over the future of Furlong Close and its unknown closure date. The care facility, in the village of Rowde, is home to 34 disabled people, and has been earmarked for closure. Impassioned relatives of residents have now formed an official group, the Families and Friends of Furlong Close, to raise awareness of their situation. Chairman Antonia Field, whose brother lives at Furlong Close, has written an open letter to both Wiltshire Council and Hft Rowde. She said: “It is now three months since Hft announced to shocked residents, staff and families of Furlong Close that the residential care home in Rowde would close by the end of June 2021 and still we have had no coherent explanation as to when, how or why this decision has been reached.
