mirambeaut Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 I am posting this both here and in the Living section as I very much hope to trigger some response.I live in the UAE and my dad (89) has been coping fairly well since my mother passed away 5 yrs ago. However he is becoming frail and he recognizes that he will soon need assistance but he does not speak French.We have been looking for English-speaking/bilingual residences for 2 years now and have only come across the new home at Mouans-Sartoux, which, unfortunately, is too costly for us.We are looking at the Charente Maritime area as I will be retiring there in a few years.Would anyone have any suggestions as to how we may tackle this problem?Thanks, Mirambeaut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doodle Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Hi Mirambeaut,There is a Retraite in Lassay Les Chateaux. The deputy head there is Anne Blake who has worked there for many years and who is a liverpudlian. If you contacted her she might be able to help with more info.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swissie Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 All fingers crossed that she will be able to help you Mirambeaut. Bonne chance.Just wondering, is there anybody here who live in your dad's area and could visit from time to time - to read a short story or just for a chat?
