My wife and sister work for them and I think it is ridiculous that they have only found out on the 17th

This service holds the most valuable support workers and co-ordinators I've ever met and had the pleasure to call colleagues. Second to none compared to other support work providers! Please don't let this company go.

I believe this company is well worth saving because it is a great company that provides excellent care all over the Scottish Borders for the elderly and has a great reputiation for providing this care all staff and office staff make this company so why take it away when there are so many elderly at home needing care.

There are clients to whom this service is soooo valuable. Their care in their own homes is important! This whole situation will be causing stress to all involved. What happened to putting people first! Some are quick enough to say it but actions speak louder than words. Save BCS

So the members of the board are "too old and too ill"???should the current board Maybe have had a contingency plan in place long before now to recruit new board members in the event of illness etc??? Surely there must be someone qualified/suitable to keep this business from closing its doors!!! What happens to the 112 clients??? Perhaps some may not be able to get through a normal day as they no longer have the support of this company and its carers!!! a charity based business like this would surely have had some interest to individuals! Sad day for the employees but even more so for the clients!

How can a company that has NO dept Plas clients wanting to take company over! But councillor GORDON EDGAR couldnt even turn up to the staff meeting! But could run to the Southern Reporter Telling Them Why Borders Caring Service Was Having To Seize Trading! Because It Was To Sick And To Old! !

(Selkirk, 2017-05-19)

I am a nurse and as a health care professional it is hugely important to stand by and rely on care services within the community to discharge patients safely from hospital and keep patients in there own homes for as long as it is safe. Without this service this would put more pressure on services and less patient satisfaction

(Hawick, 2017-05-19)

Selkirk needs these folks desperately.

(Selkirk, 2017-05-19)

#97

Its a shame for the workers and residents

(Selkirk, 2017-05-19)

#99

(scotland, 2017-05-19)

I'm signing because care in the community is at an all time high and is going to continue to become higher. It is imperitive that the care that is delivered is at a high standard. By ensuring the ongoing service of this company will continue to meet the needs of borders patients.

(Galashiels, 2017-05-19)

#103

I know a few people who work for BCS and the service they supply is second to none. Very caring and selfless.

(Galashiels, 2017-05-19)

#104

It is vital to keep this company going for the benefit of the vulnerable clients it serves.

(Leicester, 2017-05-19)

#107

IT is extremely important that this company remains,because it deals with very vulnerable people.

I'm signing because my sister is affected - and may lose her job! She cannot be let down again!!

#122

I work for this company. And in nearly 20 years of doing care work on and off can honestly say it has been one of the best companies to work for. There seem's to be no really reason to why they wish to close us. Please don't let them shut down Bcs.

(Jedburgh, 2017-05-19)

#126

This company looks after my dad and he certainly could not do without the wonderful carers.

(Peebles, 2017-05-19)

#130

I'm signing because I am one of the care staff from bcs and truly believe that the clients won't receive the high level of care maintained by all the border caring services staff with other companies due to this company being operated by a charity making it easier for them to implement changes required to make changes where they need to be made for the benefit of both staff and clients alike. The board have seriously let down staff and clients with this decision and haven't done nearly enough to attempt to save bcs.

B.C.S. have a great team and reputation, a lot of their staff left I.L.S nasty the council due to their poor organisation. Dependant clients need carers they can rely on

These girls do excellent work and are needed in the community. They shouldn't lose their jobs and clients need the stability of familiar carers.
