AC Failure at Charlie Ratchford Court | UK News

Charlie Ratchford Court, a new supportive housing complex for vulnerable residents, is turning into a literal sauna as its common area air conditioning has been broken since early this year. With 38 homes housing people with disabilities, mental health needs, and seniors, the extreme heat is severely impacting daily life — even halting creative activities like painting.
