Family of Laura Winham, who was mentally unwell and lived in social housing, raised concerns two months before her remains were found

The family of a vulnerable woman whose dead body lay in her social housing flat unnoticed for more than three years had raised concerns about her welfare two months before she was discovered, an inquest has heard.

Laura Winham’s remains were found by her brother in her flat in Woking, Surrey, in May 2021, after the family asked police to break in. They previously said she had been “abandoned and left to die” by social and mental health services
