Sam Robson Sunday Times Interview

“We have seen an increase in historic cases against private schools since… the Savile revelations.  Publicity surrounding this case has helped victims to come forward and tell us about their childhood experiences.  Their stories are often extremely harrowing and a secret that they have had to bear throughout their adult lives. 

"It is equally shocking to find how many establishments appear to have swept these revelatons under the carpet.  When victims find the strength to come forward, they become empowered by the opportunity to take charge of a situation which was entirely out of their control when they were a child.  I think the claims process is cathartic for them and helps them on the road to recovery.”
