In May, the Independent Review of Children's Social Care called for £2.6 billion investment to reform a system that is under “extreme stress”. Tony Simpson was born in a Salvation Army Mother and Baby home and then at the age of just three months was taken into care, where he was to remain until he was 16. In this three-part series he compares his experiences with those who have been through the care system more recently. While policy makers, legislators and service providers consider how the system should be improved, this series considers what the actual experience of being in care is like. Featuring only those who have been through the care system themselves, this is also an honest assessment of the lasting legacy those experiences can have on those who have been cared away from home.
