NHS trust to stand trial for manslaughter of woman, 22

Alice Figueiredo died at Goodmayes Hospital, run by North East London NHS Foundation Trust (NELFT), in July 2015. Last year the Crown Prosecution Service announced it was charging NELFT with corporate manslaughter as well as a health and safety breach.

The ward manager at the time, Benjamin Aninakwa, will also stand trial for manslaughter by gross negligence and health and safety breaches for actions related to her death. The trial opens next Tuesday and is expected to last for nine weeks.
