Monday to Friday, 6pm to midnight False accusation can happen to you, your partner, your son, daughter, grandchild, grandparent, best friend, neighbour or colleague. Social respect and community status are no protection against a criminal investigation or social services intrusion into your life. False accusation can happen to anyone, and it IS happening to thousands.
Police and other authorities operate in the belief that “… it may be that innocent people are being convicted, but we ought to be more worried about the guilty who might get away.” Sir William Utting, former Chief Inspector of Social Services.
Falsely accused families are offered information and help with how Child Protection operates, and support for the shock of Social Services’ intrusion into their lives.
Wrongly convicted prisoners are offered help with links to lawyers and other specialists to review cases and advice on appeals with free information and newsletters.
