Three members of staff from the Winterbourne View Care ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ plead guilty and keeping safe in the snow
Three members of staff from the Winterbourne View Care ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ near Bristol have pleaded guilty to the ill-treatment of residents.
Abuse at the home for people with learning difficulties was exposed by the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ's Panorama programme last year. The film showed patients allegedly being physically and verbally abused.
Publishing their findings following an inspection of WinterBorne View, the Care Quality Commission (CQC) reported a "systemic failure to protect people" at the care home.
This is the first case to be heard, a further eight people are yet to go before the courts.
Plus with the recent snow falling around the country, Living Streets, who campaign on behalf of pedestrians in the UK have launched a campaign to get councils to pledge to keep pavements safe. But why are pavements not treated the same as roads in bad weather?
