UNCERTAINTY over the future of Campbeltown care home Auchinlee means residents may be forced to move at least 100 miles away from their families.
The care home, specialised in the care of dementia sufferers, is funded by Church of Scotland charity CrossReach and is understood to be losing £250,000 a year.
Owners of the care home have called on the local authority to step in and take the home into public hands and a petition opposing the closure has been distributed around Kintyre. A decision on the future of the care home is expected this week.
