Hope

2015 | Biography

What do you do if you suspect your partner is involved in the sexual abuse of your children? What do you do if you find evidence of this activity in a locked cupboard? And what do you do if social services do not believe you and the children are groomed enough to leave with your partner when you separate? For Jenny, the discovery of sexual items in a locked cupboard led to just such questions requiring answers. But it was not only establishing the facts that supported the suspicion that she had to deal with, but also the consequences of that investigation which ultimately led to her trying to keep herself and her children safe. In a blunt account of child abuse Hope explores the effects of paedophilia on a family in stark relief.
