The baby’s mum said if she had known what was going on in the room her tot would not have died.

Hospitals were asked in the Thirlwall Inquiry if they have considered installing CCTV following Letby murdering seven babies and attempted to kill seven others.

Child D’s mother said: “If there was CCTV or we were kept aware of what was going on, she wouldn’t have died.

“I would have been there it so it wouldn’t have happened.”

“She was doing well. I was promised it would be OK to go to sleep that night and I would wake up and I would be able to feed her and hold her.

“And we got woken up in the morning to be told ‘no, this is not happening’.

Everything just crumbled. It was just a whirlwind of emotion and disaster, and I had lots of questions straightaway.

“You are going home without your baby but you know things aren’t right. Nothing made sense.”

Letby, 34, is serving 15 whole-life orders. The inquiry continues.

Most pubs pride themselves on being pillars of the community.

But The Swan takes the cake – going above and beyond to serve locals and visitors alike.

Admiral Taverns Pub of the Year – The Royal Oak – Brandon, Warwickshire

It’s a welcome win after a challenging 12 months for the pub.

While Sonya and I are the licensees, these accolades are very much recognition for our wider team, who do the day to day running under our guidance,” pub chain Greedy Gordons owner Richard Gordon said following the nomination.

“It makes the blood, sweat and tears all worth it and demonstrates that people very much like what we are doing.”
