Margaret Canham died within a few weeks of two other residents of a care home which later closed.

The granddaughter of a 97-year-old care home resident who died told an inquest she felt she had been "lied to" and was offered money by the company.

Relatives had told the BBC last year that their loved ones died weeks after a meeting in which worries were raised about "poor care".In a statement read by coroner Caroline Jones, Ms Arden said she felt she had "been lied to, misled and offered money by HC-One" - the UK's biggest care company. The family had begun proceedings to move Mrs Canham out of the home, but she was admitted to hospital prior to this happening.

The inquest heard that the home had four different sheets where information could be logged on individuals.
