A young Wigan mother has been ordered to attend an alcohol awareness course, after being found drunk while caring for a seven-year-old child.
Katie Victoria Thompson, 22, admitted being drunk in a public place at Bolton Road, in Ashton-in-Makerfield, in November.
She was given a community punishment order by Wigan magistrates yesterday and told to visit a brief alcohol programme.
Thompson, from Medlock Way, Platt Bridge, was also fined £300 for the offence, which will be taken from her benefits.
She must now report to an alcohol programme supervisor for the next six months or face further punishment.
