An elderly woman had been lying on the floor of her flat unable to get up for two days before she was rescued by a PCSO.

Cheshire police were called to her flat in Haygarth Heights, Newtown at 12.30pm on Sunday (August 27) after concerns were raised by a family member.

When PCSO Neil Denby arrived at the property, he forced his way in and found the woman had fallen to the floor and was unable to get up.
