A SERIOUS Case Review has been launched into the death of teenager Hannah Windsor.

Adam Lewis, 18, admitted murdering his 17-year-old girlfriend Hannah Windsor at Bidston Hill in Wirral.

Denis Charlton, chair of Wirral Local Safeguarding Children’s Board (LSCB), said: “Hannah’s death has affected many members of the community, including those who did not know her, and we would like to express our sympathies to her family and friends for the loss of Hannah in such tragic circumstances.

“As Hannah was known to a number of local agencies and organisations, Wirral LSCB has begun a Serious Case Review.

“This will examine how agencies worked with Hannah and her family in order to determine whether there are lessons to be learned from that involvement that may help to improve agencies’ response in the future. The review will be published when it is concluded in early 2013.

“Wirral LSCB is also carrying out a multi-agency critical case review which will examine the conduct of the agencies which had contact with the defendant in this case to determine whether there are any lessons to be learned.”
