Hey there @betsie1964 and a belated welcome to the community.

I'm sorry to see that no one was able to offer any suggestions, this can happen sometimes when it's busy. it sounds like you're doing everything you can for your son and I'm afraid I have nothing to add to this, as the police and social care would have been my first ports of call too.

Maybe now I've added this reply, some other community members may see this and offer some more support. 😊

Hi @betsie1964 Welcome to the Community from me too. I am sorry neither the police or social care were able to offer any help to your son.

Has he ever had a health and social care assessment to find out what help and support he needs.

It might help with showing how a travel lodge would not be suitable for him.

Could your GP offer any help or suggestions on the best course of action for him?

Take care.
