THE family of a vulnerable woman who lay dead in her flat for over three and a half years say she was “abandoned and left to die” by social and mental health services. Laura Winham, 38,…
Speaking ahead of Monday's hearing, Nicky said: "Laura has been so badly let down.
"But that hasn't happened and quite clearly there has been a huge break-down in Surrey County Council's system and services when caring for a vulnerable person with both physical and mental health disabilities." "Everybody who was in contact with Laura and had a duty to her at some stage simply wiped their hands of her and forgot her. She was abandoned and left to die.Eventually, police discovered Laura's remains in May 2021 after her mum and brother asked officers to break into her flat in Woking, Surrey.
She was recommended for mental health treatment in 2014 after staff at her housing association noticed she was "unwell, quite thin, and had said she had no friends and believed people were watching her". She said contact with her family used to cause her sister "enormous strain" so they had eventually agreed to let professionals handle her care.
Surrey Police officers reported to social services in October 2017 that Laura had little food and wasn't looking after herself.
