Warden charges to start from April

Bassetlaw Council’s cabinet has approved plans to keep the warden service for all elderly A1 Housing tenants past April.

The community alarm system, which has been free for some tenants through the Supporting People fund, will have to pay £1.50 a week for the service.

It will then cost £2.95 a week from April 2013, amounting to £153.40 a year.
