IT’S ALL WHITE NOW
Date posted: Monday, January 11th, 2010
The weekend bought more snow making conditions for getting in to work even more difficult if not impossible. Robertsbridge was virtually cut off making it hard for staff at Bishops Croft to attend for their duty. A team of staff encamped for the weekend ensuring all shifts ran at a full staff compliment. Part time staff at Bishops Croft bid their hours and covered the night shifts when the night staff could not make it in. Staff at the 3 Hastings homes Bishops Lodge Bishops Corner and Bishops Way made huge efforts to ensure they got into work. They walked some distance and many stayed over at their respective homes. A contingency plan was put in place where a senior manager was allocated to attend a home if need be. The duty manager was not contacted over the weekend all homes dealt with any local situation.
Monday now and there are signs of a let up with main roads clear and less problems anticipated.
