This isn’t just a picture—it’s a warning. This is the room where a young girl lived in what was supposed to be supported accommodation. Instead, the house was taken over by a drug addict who forced her into using heroin. Look closely, a mountain of needles and silver foil. I had her removed immediately—but by then, the damage was done. This is the reality when we fail to protect vulnerable children. This is what happens when “care” means placing them in squalor. How many more lives will we lose before something changes? And yet, the DfE refuses to strengthen legislation or make care experience a protected characteristic. Until that happens—until it becomes illegal—this will continue.
