Sally described how the abuse occurred on several occasions and, alarmingly, she recalls people being given access to the home through fire escapes at a time when the London Borough of Islington ought to have been conducting a thorough overall review of their safeguarding procedures.
Sally was not placed in the Conewood Street home until after articles had already revealed widespread abuse in Islington's children's homes, implying the council should have enhanced safeguarding.
'Sally', now in her 40s, says her alleged abuse occurred in the mid-1990s - after the Evening Standard had already exposed widespread abuse in Islington Council's children's homes.
