Peter Hunter, 58, sole director of Wakefield based Caring For You (Yorkshire) Limited has been jailed after admitting multiple counts of fraud by abuse of position.

Hunter appeared at Leeds Crown Court on 23 March where he was jailed for six years and nine months after stealing £330,370 from vulnerable adults his care home was responsible for.

West Yorkshire Trading Standards Service launched an investigation into Hunter after complaints were raised about him holding power of attorney for vulnerable adults.
