Hi I was the lady who was attacked and can say that the person who attacked me is in custody. I would ask people not to speculate if possible as I have been advised by the police that it?s in judicial proceedings which I don?t want to jeopardise. Many thanks
MrsBoris - I hope you and your family are well and so sorry to hear about the ordeal you went through. I am very glad that the person is now in custody and I hope that you can take some small comfort from that. Thank you so much for you and your friend for alerting people to what happened - it's what forums like this are for and I am sure people were more vigilant as a result.

Thank you for posting. I am so sorry you had to go through this awful ordeal.

I hope your son is ok?

Also many thanks for your friend for making other women aware of what happened whilst the perpetrator was still at large.

I will not comment further on this case but to answer Duncan?s question, and respond to snowy?s claim against FPFW - FPFW gathered their data using FOIs from prisons, after they had no luck in simply asking the Ministry of Justice for the information. About a week after they published their findings, the MoJ released the official data which showed that FPFW had actually slightly underestimated the case. Prisoner governors have also raised concerns about this.


That?s all I?m going to say, but I wasn?t going to allow yet another casual accusation of transphobia go unaddressed.

That's good to hear, and I really hope you and your son will be OK and get the right support.


Like others said thanks also to you and your friend for sharing on this forum, I'm sure it wasn't easy - I live on Wood Vale and am grateful to have known about this.

Why has my post been deleted? It wasn't about the case at hand, and was simply stating the background behind the stats cited by another poster earlier in the thread. If my post is to be deleted then please delete the (baseless) accusation of transphobia thrown out by *snowy*.

This is not a discussion about transphobia but you're welcome to start a discussion about it in the Lounge section.

Admin - perhaps now lock this thread? - an individual has been arrested and I would imagine we now move into a sub judice period. This would avoid any unintentional postings which might jeopardise things. Once there is a trial and verdict a new thread, if necessary, could be started.

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
