Our Sponsors play a critical part in delivering much needed funds into The Foundation and without them we would not be able to deliver our critical service to survivors.
Lie Detector Test UK
Lie Detector Test UK Sponsors The Maggie Oliver Foundation
Each year Lie Detector Test UK reviews its donations to and sponsorship of charities. This year we are happy to announce our sponsorship of The Maggie Oliver Foundation.
The charities we donate to and sponsor are carefully chosen to ensure they align with our values.
Building confidence
As forensic psychologists and polygraph examiners our work brings us into contact with many people who have suffered from historical and current sexual abuse. We are acutely aware of how many victims feel they will not be believed if they report what has happened to them. Often their families don´t believe them so they worry that the police won´t either.
When this type of abuse has happened or is happening it´s essential to have some support. A lie detector test has been the way forward for many victims and survivors, to at least get family and close friend on side.
However, aligned to the problem of not being believed there is another insidious problem, and that has been the lack of action taken over decades by authorities and police.
Grooming gangs
There have been several inquiries from which reports have been written over recent years. Research by the think tank Quilliam Foundation conducted in 2017 found that 84% of grooming gang related crimes were committed by predominantly Asian, Pakistani Muslim men.
A lack of action on the part of those responsible for protecting children has been attributed to social workers, councillors and police being worried about accusations of racism. Perhaps this was also the reason that the moment the Quilliam report became available, the media began to discredit it.
The Home Office in 2020 also discredited Quilliam´s findings with another report stating that “group-based sex offenders are most commonly white”.
Anyone questioning how the Home Office came to such an opposing view is automatically considered to be “far right”. In reality, one only has to study the court lists around the country to establish who is being prosecuted and convicted for such crimes. We don´t have to spend more millions on reports that effectively lead us nowhere.
The fact is that these crimes continue to be committed. Rather than concentrating on political correctness and the image the authorities involved wish to maintain, something needs to be done to put an end to the matter.
Vladimir Putin once said, “a society that cannot protect its children has no future”. Let´s stop talking about the ‘who’ and ‘why’. Stop worrying about the names we may or may not be called. We must ensure that our children are protected and that they have a happy, healthy future. For this reason, and many others, we choose to sponsor and support The Maggie Oliver Foundation´s work.

Arnold Clark Community Fund
Why they created the Arnold Clark Community Fund
It’s a devastating fact that due to COVID-19, one in ten UK charities are expected to file for bankruptcy (Pro Bono Economics, 2020).
So, as part of their commitment to give back to the communities in which they operate, Arnold Clark have created a fund to help registered UK charities and local community groups continue their important work during this challenging time.
The Arnold Clark Community Fund is open to all UK registered charities and local community groups who need financial assistance due to the coronavirus pandemic. The fund is also open to community interest companies, charitable incorporated organisations and social enterprises.
Applications are granted on a weekly basis with 500 applications granted per month. If you are unsuccessful on the first week of entering, you are automatically entered into the following week’s draw.
A huge thank you, to the Arnold Clark Community Fund, for granting us £1000. This will help support Adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, turn their ‘Pain into Power’.
