Nottingham attack families recognise gravity of PM meeting, victim’s mother says The families affected by the Nottingham attacks “recognise the gravity and importance” of their meeting with the Prime Minister and expect a statutory public inquiry to be announced this year, the mother of one of the victims has said.
Emma Webber, the mother of Barnaby Webber, told the PA news agency she expected an inquiry to be confirmed during the meeting at Number 10 on Wednesday, describing it as a “watershed moment for this case”.
The families of those killed in the attacks are expected to meet the PM, the Home Secretary, the Health Secretary and the Attorney General in Wednesday’s meeting.
Their scheduled meeting with the PM follows the publication of NHS England’s report into the mental health care received by Calocane in the lead up to the attacks, which found the offer of care and treatment available for him “was not always sufficient to meet his needs”.
“At every corner turned, since that catastrophic day in June 2023, our families have endured appalling treatment at the hands of Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire police forces, the Crown Prosecution Service and criminal justice system, and Nottingham mental health trust.
