I suffer from Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis which means I cannot life my feet as I walk. All around the town centre high quality Yorkshire Stone paving slabs were replaced with lightweight 'false stone' slabs.

Overtime they have moved leaving 'lips' between slabs which my feet catch. The worst example is the pavement that runs from the town hall to the health centre. The uneven pavements are all round the town centre however. I am now using crutches to walk but having suffered two broken ribs when I was using walking sticks I am very worried that it will happen again! And if tripping because of the state of the pavements almost happens to me I am very concerned that an older person could seriously injure themselves!
