Helping survivors move on with their lives.

STATEMENT ON OLDHAM COUNCIL DEBATE ON CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE

In Oldham Council’s meeting on 12th July, Maggie Oliver and The Maggie Oliver Foundation were mentioned in a debate relating to child sexual abuse and exploitation.  We know that use of our name and Maggie’s for other’s agendas can do untold damage to survivors and their recovery journeys, as such we feel it is important to our clarify our position in our own words. 

Do you have a passion for supporting victims and survivors of sexual violence to access justice? Do you believe in empowering survivors to share their experiences of our broken criminal justice system to play a vital role in improving it? Are you an experienced caseworker looking for your next challenge? If the answer to these questions is yes, then you could be the next key person to join our dedicated team.

Monday was a big day! The Maggie Oliver Foundation was invited to take along some survivors of child sexual abuse and exploitation by “grooming gangs” to attend a private meeting with the Prime Minister and Home Secretary. The meeting was to discuss their new initiative to tackle “grooming gangs”, announced on Monday.
