@larry_turner Safeguarding has been an issue for many decades. Yet never ever gets resolved. As the same mistakes the same failings continue time and time again. Those children who suffer, suffered live with that abuse/neglect their whole lives. Nothing stops it or fixes it. When will it end?
Have you looked at the new guidance? Better record’s together. I hope you will back the campaign as my MP, corporate parent, one of your constituents and care experienced person who had to jump through lots of hoops to get mine
@jacqueMccartney@ICOnews@ico Hi Jacqueline, I support what the ICO are trying to do, and have supported constituents to make Subject Access Requests to care and health organisations. There should be much greater awareness of individual rights under the DPA.
'A stranger knew more about my life than I did.'
Accessing records about time in care is a brave step to take. Jackie made multiple requests for hers.
"It's your life, it's your story and it's important to us all to get those pieces put together."
