As I write this review, the news headlines are about 19 residents who died amid neglect and hunger while staff falsified medical records at a care home for the elderly. This did not happen in some poverty-stricken faraway ex-Communist bloc state but in the UK. We should be ashamed.
The current horror stories which seem to be continually emerging from even within the NHS of how we fail to look after vulnerable people is a hot topic and one to which Christians ought to be tuned in.
