Please see the new issue of Private Eye Magazine which is published today. Page 40, "Booting The Messenger" A story about our help-line cases.

We have been contacted by a further 2500 Whistle-blowers since April 2014, we are working hard to compile this evidence into Breaking The Silence part 4.

Private Eye Magazine today publishes a story about my report on relative retribution in care homes. The cases highlighted are truely shocking and include relatives being banned or threatened with eviction, one elderly couple had visiting restrictions placed on them,

Yesterday I attended a Safeguarding meeting to support a family who had raised concerns about a care home. I am well aware that safeguarding fails to keep people safe. This morning I was interviewed on BBC Radio Kent on the issue of increased safeguarding referrals and what this increase means. 

There continues to be national press coverage for CQC inspections and those care homes rated inadaquate. However homes 85 and 86 in Tales of the Un-inspected are yet to recieve a new improved CQC inspection. These homes from hell were last inspected in early October 2014, 9 monthes ago, when the abysmal state of the care provided was again noted by the CQC but no further action taken.
