A HEREFORD woman who allowed a child to fall from a high chair, suck on a vape, and drink alcohol has been sentenced by a court.
Sophie Tyler appeared before magistrates in Hereford for sentencing in October after she was convicted of four offences when she appeared before magistrates in Hereford in September..
The court heard the 19-year-old had wilfully ill-treated or exposed a child, who cannot be named for legal reasons, in a manner likely to cause them unnecessary suffering or injury to health by allowing them to fall from their high chair on two occasions on April 11.
