Default Surrey council has apologised : Laura, 41 found dead after 3 years

This was on Tuesday
ITV1HD London News

Young Laura told her mum to stay away
or she would harm herself.

Her Brother went to her home
She was curled up Dead for 3 Years. (In 2021)

Back, before that, the Police visited her
She had No Food and No Money.

The Surrey Council Posted a Letter to Laura
as they got No Reply
They then Closed the Case?


Surely she should have been Sectioned
and at least then getting food,


[A council has apologised after one of its
tenants lay dead in her Surrey flat for
more than three years.
Laura Winham, 41, was found dead in her
flat in Woking by her
mother and brother in May 2021.

Following the conclusion of the
inquest into Ms Winham's death
on Tuesday, Woking Borough Council
apologised for failings within
its housing service.

"The tragic events that led to her
death and the missed opportunities
to discover her body should never
have been allowed to happen,"
said Louise Strongitharm,
the council's strategic director for
communities.

Ms Winham was a vulnerable woman
with schizophrenia who had twice
been sectioned and had cut ties with
her family because she thought they
were trying to harm her.

The inquest heard how Ms Winham's
body was "mummified and almost skeletal"
when it was found at her council flat
in Devonshire Avenue.

Her cause and time of death could not
be determined but a calendar in the flat
was crossed off until 1 November 2017.

Ms Winham's mother and brother found
her remains after trying to make contact
when her father's health
was deteriorating.]
