A mum described as "the life and soul of the party" died just days after returning from a weekend away at Butlins.
Laura Corkin, 43, had been struggling with her mental health and was referred to support team the Initial Response Service (IRS). The mum-of-three began to worry about money and her career and after being referred to the newly-established service in March 2022 she was due to be spoken to within five days.
However, due to staff shortages she was not spoken to for eight days. An inquest at Accrington Town Hall was held into the mum-of-three's death where it was heard the weekend before she died, she had been on enjoying an 80s-themed weekend away at Butlins in Skegness with her friends "singing and dancing just like she always was".
