Letters

• Thousands left are homeless

  LAST month death and destruction reigned for thousands of families as their homes were demolished, with many killed or left homeless. read more

• Paying to not recycle

  I write following a trip to the Malvern tip at Monday lunchtime. read more

• Picasso picture

  HAVING received my Council Tax bill today and associated bumf, I am really shocked at the persistent attempts to mislead and give a bright and smiley account of what the council is up to; it really is the little brother of central government. read more

• Budget help

  Now the Council Tax bills have landed on our doormats and we have tried to digest the changes over last year, those of us on fixed pensions will probably be wondering when the rises will be in line with our pension increases and not above. read more

• Pleasure to many

  I WAS interested to read (Ledbury Reporter, March 23) that Ledbury Day Centre, at Leadon Bank, will be taken over by Shaw. The present day centre has operated as an independent day centre for many years and has given pleasure and friendship to many people during this time. These people have been able to leave their own homes for a few hours each week. This has given them companionship and enjoyment. read more

• Abrupt halt

  I'd like to pass on my heartfelt thanks to all who stopped to help me after my cycle ride had been abruptly and violently halted by a pot-hole on Worcester Road. read more

• Still waiting

  REFERRING to the article in the Malvern Gazette (March 16) pointing out the pot holes in Malvern's roads. Malvern Hills Highway Partnership may well inspect the roads regularly. We know this because they draw pretty white lines around the holes, as at the bottom of Thirlstane Road. But when will something happen? read more
