A police investigation had been launched after concerns were raised about the standard of care provided to residents at the home, which specialised in dementia care.

At the time, 28 residents had to be immediately rehoused in other accommodation. Mrs Atkin, a widowed former dressmaker, had been moved to Autumn Grange in the summer of 2012 when she became unable to cope in the bungalow where she had lived for more than 50 years. According to a relative, Mrs Atkin, who was suffering from dementia, had worked as a factory machinist. Her husband of 58 years, Kenneth, worked in a lemonade factory before his death six years ago.
