00:00Every resident in this building and this establishment will need possibly to move twice to relocate in areas of Ashford that they don't know.
00:11Some are long-time members of Roven and have lived in here all their lives. Many don't want to move.
00:17I don't want to talk. I've got a son up in the village who's had cancer and been left with terrible side effects.
00:26I want to be near him. I want to stay here with everybody around me because we get on well.
00:34We've made our friends. We have support. Take us away in different places.
00:40We have no connection probably with people and you lose a friendship and you lose your support, which is not what I want.
00:49I mean, now they're all about scattering. It's all over the place, really, and you're away from all the people you know.
00:55You know, nobody knows where we're going to end up. Could be Ashford, could be anything, you know, anyway.
01:00We all get on well together. We all help each other out and all that will be gone, really.
