A family friend who offered to help out in a workshop in Batley was severely injured when her arm was dragged into a rotating machine tool.

HSE told Dewsbury magistrates that Julie Thackray was helping out at a friend’s business when her glove became caught in the chuck of a high-speed milling machine, leaving her with fractures and cuts to her forearm.
