A Nottinghamshire mum who lost her daughter in a tragic caravan fire says she is filled with 'anger and passion' as she fights to change safety laws
A Nottinghamshire mum who lost her daughter in a tragic caravan fire says she is filled with "anger and passion" as she fights to change safety laws. Natasha Broadley, 35, from Newark, has now secured a meeting with the Government and industry figures in her campaign to make it mandatory for all caravans to have smoke alarms fitted.
But the inquest heard a fault could not be established with the boiler that the owner should have known about. Lincolnshire Police have since confirmed there will be no criminal charges and East Lindsey District Council will not be prosecuting.But as well as making it mandatory for smoke alarms to be fitted in caravans, Ms Broadley says legislation should also cover boiler certification and regular health and safety checks.
"Every day I'm still raising awareness about this, telling people if they go on holiday to take batteries with them and to make sure the certificates are up to date. You don't really think about safety when you're on holiday, because that should all fall back to the owner." Ms Broadley was staying in the caravan with her four children when the fire took place, with she and her three elder children surviving. Hundreds of mourners attended the funeral service for Louisiana in Newark in September 2021.
