Genevieve’s Case Pushes Nursery Safety Forward | Manchester News

from Manchester News Today | The Daily News Now!

Baby Genevieve Meehan’s tragic death at a nursery in 2022 has once again delayed the pre-inquest review, as police and prosecutors sift through mountains of evidence — including CCTV and witness statements — to determine if gross negligence or corporate manslaughter charges are warranted. Her parents, leading the ‘Campaign for Gigi’, remain devastated by the delay but have already sparked major government action: over £8 million annually will fund Ofsted to triple unannounced nursery inspections, and by September 2026, new, expert-backed safety guidelines will mandate safer sleep practices — covering position, surfaces, bedding, and supervision — with staff required to follow NHS SIDS guidance.
