No End To Smear Campaigns.

I have known Ian Perkin the NHS Whistle-blower for a number of years and know that he is a genuine Whistle-blower and a man of great integrity. Anyone who read all the evidence in Ian Perkins Whistle-blowing case could only conclude that a grave injustice has taken place.

Home 42 was first exposed by Compassion in Care in 2004, 12 years ago Phyllis Jewson, aged 90 fell whilst being hoisted and suffered a Fatal brain injury.

We also exposed two further incidents that were not mentioned in the CQC Inspection reports at all,

The BBC Victoria Derbyshire programme on the 2nd of November 2016 exposed that bans and evictions were happening as a result of raising concerns about a care home.

We would like to thank BBC Journalist Sangita Myska for helping us to expose the scale of this issue.

RIP Gavin MacFadyen, a true and loyal friend, a man of integrity and honour. Gavin was a shining example of all that is good in journalism. He gave a voice to whistle-blowers, exposed injustice and abuse, he served the public interest in all that he did. We will work to ensure his legacy lives on in the Gavin MacFadyen award. It was a privilege to know and work with Gavin
Our thoughts are with his family and all those who loved him.

The below story was published last month and focuses on whistle blowing in the financial sector and is an insight into how some people view whistle-blowing. Those who disclose information for financial incentives are not Whistle-blowers but Bounty Hunters. Whistle-blowers do deserve legal protection that includes fair compensation for the harm suffered and all whistle-blowers should be equally protected.

To The Whistle-blowing Guardian.

Open Letter to Dr Henrietta Hughes.
From Eileen Chubb

Dear Dr Hughes,
Yesterdays newspapers ran several stories on your first public statement as the new National Whistle-blowing Guardian. Your comments are so far removed from the issue of Whistle-blowing that even some of the media ran the angle yesterday that it was about staff being grumpy, so it is small wonder some of the public have not realised your statement related to Whistle-blowing at all.

Our major new report is published today In The Breaking The Silence section http://compassionincare.com/sites/default/files/breakingsilence/SHOULD%2...

In Light of the recent public statements by David Behan and Andrea Sutcliffe of the CQC with regard to Des Kelly OBE, I will be publishing all the three hundred pieces of Independent factual evidence that proves what Mr Kelly knew, when he knew it and what he did about it. All those who have harboured Mr Kelly and allowed him to rise to such a powerful position will have to answer for the stance they have taken in protecting a man who denied and covered up abuse and consistently called the whistle-blowers liars.

Andria Sutcliffe, Chief Inspector Adult Social Care CQC

Dear Ms Sutcliffe,
In response to your letter of July 6th,

You refer to your improved inspection process and as evidence to support this you cite your recent prosecution of a Bradford care provider.

However at the time of the residents death this particular home was inspected and rated good by the CQC, you reacted after the death and only then found the home failing.
