Jersey's Journey of Healing: A Place to Remember

Welcome to the H.J. Talks About Abuse podcast, where we delve into the complex topics of sexual abuse cases, with a focus on both legal aspects and broader issues faced by survivors. In this episode, Alan Collins from Hugh James discusses the significance of a new memorial in Jersey, known as 'A Place to Remember,' which stems from the recommendations of the Jersey Care Inquiry.

This episode examines the historical context of the Jersey child abuse scandal, the ensuing media coverage, and the subsequent Jersey Care Inquiry led by Francis Oldham. The inquiry's comprehensive report shed light on systemic failures and prompted constructive measures to aid survivors.

Alan shares his personal reflections on attending the opening of this commemorative garden and highlights its importance as a source of strength, support, and healing for survivors past, present, and future. This reflective and positive episode concludes with Alan's best wishes for the year ahead.
