The 13st girl whose weight loss treatment cost you £12,000... and the mother who insists: 'It's not my fault'

Beverley Deakin, of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, said her daughter Destiny's happiness justified the £12,000 of taxpayers money spent on a 'fat camp'. 


The then-12-year-old (right with her mother) attended a specialist weight loss programme on two occasions funded by the local council. She is now 15 years old (left with Beverley) and weighs a healthy 11st, having kept the weight off by attending the gym and changing her diet.
