Eight residents have been moved out of a care home in Little Stretton.

The eight people included one person paid for by another council and they are said to have settled into their new residences following the council's action at Caradoc House, in Ludlow Road, Little Stretton.

"The council acted after learning that the owner who operates this home sought voluntary liquidation for Caradoc House." But the council spokesman added:"Due to the issues of insolvency and quality raised by the CQC, the council feels the change in ownership would neither address these nor meet our contract standards.

The major creditor is HM Revenue and Customs, owed £212,515. Companies House has been told that a sale of furniture and other assets could raise £10,000 for preferential creditors.Following this, the company's majority shareholder, Norriz Farol Andal, held a meeting of the creditors on January 20 and a resolution to wind up the company was put in a virtual meeting.Mr Booth declined to comment on the collapse of the company.

They found a slew of problems, summarising:"People were not safe. The provider failed to ensure substances hazardous to health were safely stored, firefighting equipment was readily available or that window restrictors were in place on all windows." The CQC said:"The overall rating for this service is 'Inadequate' and the service is therefore in 'special measures'. This means we will keep the service under review and, if we do not propose to cancel the provider's registration, we will re-inspect within six months to check for significant improvements.
