A young boy went for four months without taking a bath, having a home-cooked meal or changing his clothes at a home for vulnerable children in Bolton, inspectors say.
The home was blasted as 'inadequate' by Ofsted, with the watchdog listing a series of serious failings that left children at risk.
On one bizarre occasion, inspectors say a child was put in harm's way by staff 'carrying out cardiac pulmonary resuscitation on them when this was not necessary'.
