Holland House Action Group (HHAG)

The Holland House Action Group or HHAG, was formed by a concerned group of people within the communities of Hook and Goole, East Yorkshire, upon the receipt of information that the local Residential Nursing Home - Holland House, was to be closed and transformed into a High Security Mental Health Facility.

The HHAG is concerned on two counts;

1. That the residents of Holland House had been served a Notice to Quit, without any prior notification to either themsleves or their families, thus causing grave concern as there is a distinct shortage of residential nursing beds in the area.

2. That the proposed development to transform Holland House into a High Security Mental Health Facility for people diagnosed with DSPD (Dangerous & Severe Personality Disorder) had been very quietly pushed through, without any notification or public consultation with the communities in the vicinity. Furthermore, the proposed development is within half a mile of the village of Hook with it's nurseries and Primary School, and less than 250 yards from the latest ongoing development in Goole.
