An inquest into the death of a 27-year-old man with complex needs, including epilepsy, found he died as a result of near drowning, insufficient supervision and inadequate medical care. At the time of his death, in March 2015, Greg Roult was on holiday at the Sonesta Beach Resort in Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt with two of his carers, who were employed by Lancashire County Council. Greg was in the swimming pool with both carers when he suffered a seizure, and was found lying at the bottom of the pool. Despite attempts to save his life, largely by one of his carers and other holidaymakers, he sadly died later that day in hospital.
