Campaign in honour of Gigi goes to Number 10

THE tragic death of Genevieve 'Gigi' Meehan at the hands of a nursery worker who was supposed to be looking after her shocked the nation.

- 

The nine-month-old girl was killed at Tiny Toes Children's Day Nursery, in Cheadle, in May 2022.

She was strapped face down onto a beanbag and left unsupervised for 90 minutes by her nursery worker, Kate Roughley who is now serving 14 years in jail for causing her unlawful death.

Last week, Gigi's parents delivered a letter to No. 10 urging measures to improve safety standards in nursery settings.

The Campaign for Gigi calls for compulsory CCTV in nursery settings; unannounced Ofsted inspections to be routine in early years settings; review of camera footage in Ofsted inspections; clear, statutory safe sleep guidance for early years settings and mandatory safe sleep training for all nursery staff and Ofsted inspectors.
