Family members of the late Sheila Latham have asked us to point out that she was not related to Nigel Dunn.

The Dorset Echo was misinformed by Mr Dunn that he and Mrs Latham were siblings for the article ‘Disabled man battles to stay in Weymouth home’, published on September 1.

We would like to clarify that Mr Dunn has subsequently admitted he was not related to Mrs Latham but was her carer.
