A young DJ who died after contracting meningitis would have had a "chance of life" if he had not fallen and banged his head while in a confused state in hospital, his mother has told a coroner.

Alex Theodossiadis, 25, died after he was taken to Leeds General Infirmary and then transferred to the city's St James's Hospital in January 2020, an inquest heard on Wednesday.

Mr Theodossiadis's mother, Professor Sue Theodossiadis, told the inquest she had a number of concerns about what happened to her son, especially relating to falls he had at St James's.
