   And yet they persist in telling us that there are no plans to sell!!! They really must think we are stupid. Get rid of staff, sell minibus, hmmmm wonder where this is heading. He'll be flogging the church silver on eBay soon. More business minded people might call this asset stripping. After all I bet be doesn't have room at his new offices for a minibus and half the stuff stored at AD. Best get rid of it now eh? Wonder how much of the community's culture in the form of archives and photos will find their way to a rubbish tip. This is a scorched earth policy by someone who thinks the deaf community are his 'sworn adversaries'. His words. He really really despises the Leicester Deaf Community.

   Hope he dont think he can sell the deaf club stuff aswell!
   How has he got away with everything so far. He talks a good job to the idiots well placed to help him, thats why!
   I wouldnt trust him in charge of my dog! He would probrably lose it.

   I was really appalled to hear about the mini bus going. What is going to happen to those who do need the mini bus? I do feel for over 50 club, Special Needs and Hard of Hearidng who do rely on this important transport. It is very important for the Deaf Community to get together and need communications among them.

   I've created a link to your blog under the existing link to the Leicester Deaf Club website. Hope this link helps people to continue finding out the information you guys are keeping in the public domain.

   The LDCS knew nothing about this. Our young people will be extremely disappointed we used the minibus for lots of trips etc.
   
   Its also the end of an era - its good free advertising!!! just like the Vista buses and age concern buses!!! thats it the end!
   
   We will just have to pool together and buy our own! we could set up our own little charity and i'm sure we could get plenty volunteers to drive it!
   
   Very disapointed I must say!

   As usual people are upset about things that are happening in AD.
   The problem is that the building is run for the deaf but there is no information about the changes and the AD staff seem to think that they know what best for the deaf community. Without asking us they think they know best and are very surprise at why is every project they set up, suposing to be for the deaf benefit, is a flop.
   Why? l thought the staff know what we want and until they ask us it will carry on the same way.
