A woman who was found dead alongside her “entirely dependent” teenage daughter had called 999 saying she “could not move” almost four months before her body was found but no ambulance was sent to her, an inquest has heard.

Alphonsine Djiako Leuga, 47, suffered from sickle cell anaemia and died from pneumonia, and her 18-year-old daughter, Loraine Choulla, had learning difficulties and Down’s syndrome, relying on her mother for food and hydration.
