A 'party-loving' hair stylist from Trafford has been sentenced to a drink rehabilitation program following a chaotic episode at the Wythenshawe Hospital. Lindsey Saville, 49, was restrained after attacking staff members during a medical emergency.

Lindsey, the owner of Off Your Head salon in Stretford, was admitted to the hospital following a medical event when she started screaming in a waiting area. She attacked a security guard and spat at a nurse, causing significant distress.

Saville faced Manchester Crown Court, admitting to charges including assaulting emergency workers. The incident, which occurred in July 2021, was intensified due to her intoxication. As a result, she was sentenced to a 12-month community order with rehabilitation requirements.

The court heard how she attacked hospital staff, which led to some employees undergoing medical tests. Despite her past convictions, Saville's cooperation with probation services allowed the court to impose a more lenient sentence.

Ms. Saville, who resides at Davyhulme Road East, has since shown remorse and expressed a determination to change her life, with a focus on maintaining her abstinence from alcohol.
