NHS trust will be the first mental health trust to stand trial for corporate manslaughter
I would like to be emailed about offers, events and updates from The Independent. Read our Privacy notice
An NHS trust will become the first ever to be tried for the corporate manslaughter of a mental health patient after being charged over the death of a 22-year-old woman
Alice Figueiredo died at Goodmayes hospital, run by North East London NHS Foundation Trust (NELFT)
Last year the Crown Prosecution Service announced it was charging NELFT with corporate manslaughter as well as a health and safety breach
will also stand trial for manslaughter by gross negligence and health and safety breaches for actions related to her death
The trial opens on 29 October and is expected to last for nine weeks
NEFLT will be the second ever NHS trust to be charged with corporate manslaughter after Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Trust was charged following the death of a woman who underwent an emergency Caesarean in 2015
it is the first mental health trust to be charged over the death of a patient in a psychiatric unit
Although this is the first time a trust is facing corporate manslaughter charges over the death of a mental health patient there have been several successful prosecutions brought by regulators the Care Quality Commission and Health and Safety Executive over mental health patient deaths
which was fined £650,000 in March after admitting to criminal failures for exposing 23-year-old patient Matthew Caseby to serious risk of harm
The Priory Group was also fined £300,000 by the HSE over the death of 14-year-old Amy El-Keria in 2019
Caseby died a self-inflicted death after absconding from the Woodbourne Priory hospital in Birmingham in 2020 where he was an NHS inpatient
Southern Health NHS Trust was fined £2million after pleading guilty to breaching health and safety laws following the deaths of Connor Sparrowhawk and Teresa Colvin in 2013 and 2012
North Essex Partnership Trust was prosecuted by HSE and fined £1.5m for safety failings over the deaths of 11 patients
Essex Police were carrying out a separate criminal probe into deaths at the trust however dropped this in 2019
which is being led by Baroness Kate Lampard
There are several active criminal investigations currently taking place into deaths at other NHS trusts
with police looking into the death of a 14-year-old girl at private children’s mental health hospital Taplow Manor
Nottinghamshire Police are currently carrying out a criminal investigation into maternity cases after baby deaths at Nottingham University Hospitals Foundation Trust.

Green minded locals could soon be putting their food and other organic waste to good use as Redbridge Council launches community composting sites in its parks for the first time
As well as supporting local people to reduce their food waste through composting
the new eco-sites produce nutrient rich compost from the organic waste
which can be used to help keep the parks’ green spaces flourishing
the site will be accessible Tuesdays and Wednesdays
Items that can be composted include uncooked fruit and vegetables
Each site will have posters informing people of the full list of what can and can’t be composted
The green-initiative forms part of the Council’s work to reduce food waste in Redbridge and lower the borough’s carbon footprint to help tackle the climate crisis
Two community composting workshops are also being hosted at the sites to mark their official opening
and to encourage local people to find out more about the benefits of composting
There’s no need to book a spot on the FREE opening day workshops
Run by the Council’s Neighbourhoods Team and Park Rangers
the workshops will give composting demonstrations
information on what can and can’t be composted
and the environmental and financial benefits of composting whether it’s done through the community sites or via home composting
is a passionate local environmentalist and welcomed the new initiative
hailing it as an ‘opportunity for local people to be involved in positive community action that helps our local environment’
She continued: “The public composting sites are a great way to get the community involved in helping care for the local environment because we all have a role to play in that
Reducing our waste to tackle the climate crisis is all our responsibility
This new initiative is a great way to put waste to work
Using our food waste to turn it into compost creates opportunities for our parks to have new flowers and greenery that the community has had a helping hand in cultivating for everyone to enjoy
Community composting sites are particularly ideal for those who are unable to compost at home due to lack of outside space
led through Vision Redbridge Culture & Leisure who manage the borough’s parks on behalf of Redbridge Council
is also being supported by The Ministry of Justice—Community Payback
and The Seven Kings and Goodmayes Allotment Society
The groups will be actively involved in several ways from offering advice
providing organic matter to sustain the composting process
and helping to regularly turn the compost and help apply it to revitalise flowerbeds once the compost is ready for use
said: “Composting is a great way to use food waste to make a positive impact on the environment
It helps to reduce household waste and emissions associated with transportation and processing
The composted food waste provides high nutrient soil which is great for gardening and will be put to good use in our local parks
This is a great example of how we can work together to reduce waste and emissions
and the workshops will provide valuable tips for home composting
I would like to extend special thanks to the groups supporting the project for their active participation in making it a success and ensuring its ongoing smooth operation.”
Around a third of waste produced in Redbridge is organic waste
Households can help reduce this figure by putting their food waste to good use through composting
which is nature's process of recycling food waste into nutrient rich sustenance for gardens and green spaces
a household can reduce their waste by at least 30% through composting
Composting at home for just one year can also save global warming gases equivalent to all the CO2 an average household kettle produces annually
or a washing machine produces in three months
It’s a great way to reduce your household waste and free up your bins. To find out more about composting, or to purchase a compost bin go to: https://www.redbridge.gov.uk/bins-waste-and-recycling/garden-waste/home-composting/

are being revisited by developer Weston Homes
Once the new plans have been finalised the scheme will be re-submitted to Redbridge Council’s planning committee for review
are proposing to deliver new homes and green space in Goodmayes on the existing Tesco site
The developer’s initial plans included a new school on the site
as the number of children and young people living in Redbridge and London has fallen sharply
leading to local schools reporting an abundance of over 500 unfilled school places

The leadership teams of local primary schools
Farnham Green and Barley Lane have shared support for the Council’s decision
Executive Headteacher at Farnham Green Primary School
said: “We welcome the Council’s decision to secure the future of existing schools
which could jeopardise the future of existing local Good and Outstanding rated schools like Farnham Green
when we have enough spaces for local children.”
Chair of Governors at Barley Lane Primary School
said: “Government funding for schools is largely based on pupil numbers
so building a new school unnecessarily would simply increase the pressure on existing local schools which already have unfilled spaces
Barley Lane Primary is less than a mile away from the proposed development site
and between us and the other local schools nearby
there are sufficient spare places available for local children.”
Plans to transform the heart of Goodmayes into a thriving
jobs and community facilities have moved a step closer
Weston Homes’ planning application for the site in High Road
was approved by Redbridge Council’s planning committee on Thursday 27 May 2021
The plans would see the existing Tesco Extra demolished and replaced by a new store

Cabinet Member for Housing and Homelessness said: “Goodmayes is in the heart of the Crossrail corridor
This a major opportunity to turn a currently underutilised
The plans will help us tackle the affordable housing crisis in the borough while driving economic growth that will encourage businesses to thrive
The homes created through the development – which will also boost the biodiversity and urban greening of the area - will be a mix of different sizes and tenures
featuring private and communal outdoor spaces
The plans will also see additional improvements to accessibility for pedestrians
cyclists and other road users including the widening of the High Road
pedestrian crossing to the Barley Lane Recreation Ground and a direct link to Goodmayes station
Job opportunities will be created both during the construction phase
through the supply chain and indirect employment
and via new flexible commercial units created for the existing and future members of the community
The council has been consulting with local residents on the proposals since 2019
Development of the High Road site is included within Redbridge’s Local Plan
which sets the council’s vision and framework for future development in the borough between now and 2030
The planning application will now be submitted to the Mayor of London and the Greater London Authority
