Child Abuse Compensation Client
A number of allegations of assault and mistreatment have been made against staff at three homes operated by Hesley Group.
A 92 year old pensioner is one of two people to have appeared at Bradford Crown Court on 19 February. Both Malcolm Philips and Linda Brunning, 65, have been charged with various offences relating to the alleged sexual abuse of children at Skircoat Lodge, Halifax, between the 1970’s and 1990’s.
The abuse at Skircoat Lodge, a former care home in West Yorkshire, has been a matter of public concern for many years. Malcolm Phillips, the manager of Skircoat Lodge for nearly two decades, was convicted in 2001 for the repeated sexual abuse of children in his care and sentenced to seven years in prison.
Switalskis has recently reached a £30,000 out-of-court settlement for a client who was sexually abused by a Scout leader in 2013.
