Georgina Weaver was studying animal care and wanted to be a vet.

Her two dogs are now a daily reminder for her family

Georgina suffered severe headaches for several years and was rushed

Within a week, her life support machine was switched off.

The ICT unit was in tears because it affected everybody on the ward.

Because they said it was so unusual to have a young adult

the postmortem and says the staff involved no longer work there.

Tomorrow would have been Georgina's 20th birthday.

Her parents are building a memorial garden for her.

But they say failings in her daughter's care have

A box stuffed with razor blades and a jar of coffee that contained

dirty cat litter have been handed into a food bank in West Sussex.

Volunteers made the discovery at the Burgess Hill Community Food

They've reported the incident to the police.

Almost six months after the worst flooding in a decade, an agreement's

been made to spend ?38 million improving flood defences in Kent.

But the Environment Agency and Kent County Council still have to

get approval for the investment, as Lynda Hardy reports.

It was the Christmas to forget in parts of Kent.

Today, as they're still drying out in Yalding,

It's as millions of pounds of funding is discussed that could

see a new early warning system in Yalding, and the life flood barrier

The people who are flooded are still out of their homes, or, like me,

living upstairs with no kitchen, and no furniture downstairs.

And that isn't reasonable for people to expect for people to put

It all depends upon the money, whether it is actually delivered.

So, these agreements, in principle, are all fine and large, and, yes,

One particular thing we are talking about today is

the improvements we are making to our flood warning service.

So, we've had quite a lot of feedback to say flood warnings

people received didn't always help them to understand their risk,

what was going to happen, and help them take appropriate action.

Meanwhile, how the money to prevent future flooding

like this will be spent, and exactly where, is still to be decided.

There was a fair amount of cloud around spoiling

We hold onto the cloud for most of the night, but it should be dry,

though, with the odd spot of rain, here and there.

Many of us will have a dry night, though.

And a warmer night, too, than last night.

With the cloud, we've got temperatures down to

For tomorrow, there is still a fari amount of cloud around, but much

So, many more breaks in that cloud allowing

Again, many of us will have a dry day tomorrow.

But temperatures really quite healthy.

We're looking at highs of 19, 20 Celsius in some parts, so quite

Enjoy that warmth in that sunshine because on Monday things go downhill

Well, that is it from us for now. We will be back same time tomorrow. In

the meantime, enjoy your weekend. Hello. So far, so good. Most of us

have had a dry start of the weekend. Some of us will be turning wetter

tomorrow. For that change we look to the far north-west of the UK.

Overnight into western Scotland, thicker cloud. Patchy hybrids of

rain moving in. Some of that reaching Northern Ireland late in

the night. Elsewhere, dry. Where you are clear, you will see some patchy

mist and fog developing. Temperatures just over a single

figures. There will be a different look to the weather across the

western side of the UK. Western coast 's of England and Wales, so

much sunshine today. More cloud around, maybe a hint of drizzle. In
