Some say they're worried about potential trouble, while others want to welcome the children into the community.

Dimensions Care has applied to change the house in Sheet Road, Ludlow, into a home-based environment for five children aged between six and 17 with social and emotional needs.

Dimensions Care has told Shropshire Council planners that it is looking to"care for children who have suffered trauma in their past". They will have a trained staff team adopting a therapeutic approach and provide a family home structure with routines for all the children.One resident complains that it is"not a suitable use for the neighbourhood".

"This does not sound like living next door to a family nor would it fit in with the keeping of the community."Ludlow Town Council supports the proposal and other supporters have stepped in to the row to give their backing. "The deplorable, scaremongering remarks aimed against vulnerable children with social and behavioural needs who have suffered trauma are a stark, unsettling reminder that discrimination is a constant challenge faced by vulnerable people in society every day, which is extremely distressing."
