Authorities showed "very little professional curiosity and scepticism" about the family situation of Poppi Worthington, the toddler who died after apparently being sexually abused by her father.

The 13-month-old was found with serious injuries at her home in Barrow in December 2012.  

In January a judge said her father, Paul Worthington, 48, sexually assaulted her before her sudden death. He was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault but not charged with any offence.

Today a Serious Case Review by Cumbria Local Safeguarding Children Board into her death found midwives, health visitors and GPs failed to question Poppi's outward appearance as a "happy" child.

It also found there was "little understanding of the need and risk" of people in the same situation as Poppi's mother, who cannot be named for legal reasons.

The Met Office has now issued heavy rain warnings for Cumbria for the next three days., external

The warnings all call for heavy showers and thunderstorms, dropping up to 25mm (1in) of rain within an hour, possibly causing local flooding and disruption to travel.

The warning starts from noon today, and covers from 10:00 until 21:00 on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Patients and their relatives will now be able to see who's in charge of wards at the Cumberland Infirmary and West Cumberland Hospital.

'Matron Boards' are being displayed at the entrance to all the wards, showing details of who the ward matron is and how to contact them. There will also be postcard-size versions handed out.

It's hoped the boards will make it easier for patients to get help and to understand who is looking after them.

Some 9,000 men in Cumbria could be risking their lives by failing to take a test which could detect the early stages of bowel cancer.

The county council invited 20,000 men to take part in a screening programme last year, but has been disappointed by the take-up rate for the home tests.

Cancer Research UK says screening like this saves lives.

Ten days to go until the EU Referendum takes place, and last night BBC Look North hosted a debate to discuss it.

We had the Daily Mirror's Kevin Maguire and journalist Rod Liddle on the panel, among others.

Liddle argued that short-term troubles caused by leaving the EU would be "worth it in the long-run", while Newcastle Central Labour MP Chi Onwurah said that "the people who suffer when things go wrong with the economy are not the rich, they are poor people and young people who don't yet have a job".

BBC Radio Cumbria producer Tom Burrows was in Marseille to watch England play Russia at Euro 2016 and witnessed violence outside and inside the stadium.

He was sitting in a bar on the main square before the game on Saturday when a group of Russian fans stormed the main square.

More on the weather situation - the Met Office has issued a yellow warning for rain today, from midday until 9pm.

Scattered heavy thundery showers are expected to develop leading to slow-moving downpours. Some parts will inevitably miss most, or all, of the heavier rain.

Some 15-20 mm could fall within an hour in scattered locations, bringing the risk of flooding, especially if across urban areas.

Thousands of men in the county are ignoring the screening programme for bowel cancer.

Figures from Cumbria County Council show 20,000 men were sent the kit last year to carry out a test at home, but 9,000 of them didn't do it.

The free test is offered to people aged between 60 and 74 every two years.
