I am aware that for some reason staff are not staying in Summersets employment for very long. This must make things very difficult for management.

Our village should upgrade villas as they become available with double glazing and heatpumps.

Provide better facilities in units within the complex- modernise or upgrade. Create use of collaborative approach rather than change rules and regulations from 'on high'
