A Nottinghamshire family's holiday to Cape Verde was allegedly ruined by illness. Lesley and Grant Breed, from Sutton-in-Ashfield, are part of a group of 46 holidaymakers seeking legal action against operator TUI.
The lawyers representing the group said families' holidays had been ruined after being struck down with gastric illness across two hotels on the island of Sal. TUI said it regularly audited the health and safety of all its hotels.
Mr and Mrs Breed, both aged 53, travelled to the African islands on July 26 along with their 15-year-old son Finn and stayed at the Melia Dunas Resort. "We couldn’t wait to get to the hotel, particularly after an eight-hour wait at the airport on the way out," recalled Lesley.
