Welfare agencies missed 50 chances to save a toddler who died from a methadone overdose after social workers failed to take him into care, a ****ing report has revealed.
Jayden Lee Green, who was just a month short of his second birthday, was found dead in his parents bed after overdosing on the heroin substitute in August last year.
The toddler, who was given the drug to sedate him, lived with his crack cocaine and heroin-addicted parents Jamie Green and Sonia Britton in a filthy flat in the St Georges area of Bristol.
A serious case review, commissioned by Bristol Safeguarding Children Board, found there were more than 50 'missed opportunities' by professional agencies to intervene which began even before he was born.
