Birth injury girl gets £4million injury compensation for future care

Birth injury girl gets £4million injury compensation for future care | Injuries Direct
A girl who was left disabled for life after a traumatic birth has been awarded a £4million injury compensation package.

Six-year-old Holly Nixon from Kidderminster has cerebral palsy after she was starved of oxygen during her birth at the Worcestershire Royal Hospital in 2003.
