A CARER who allegedly stole money from the man he was caring for will stand trial in Salisbury next week.

Allan John Beacham, of Wootton, Kent, will appear in Salisbury Crown Court on Monday, January 8, for the first day of his trial.

He previously pleaded not guilty to theft after being accused of stealing cash from award-winning film writer Alan Pattillo while employed as his full-time carer between January 1, 2017, and June 1, 2019.
