Jersey care home victims to be offered up to £60,000

But for the victims of this terrible crime, it’s more about the recognition that the financial compensation.

UK law firm Pannone is representing a majority of the victims and representative Alan Collins believes this will be a good start for the victims to put the past behind them.

“Many of them had been placed at Haut de la Garenne – and other homes in Jersey – through no fault of their own and often because of tragic family circumstances, only to endure often harsh conditions, deliberate cruelty and sexual abuse,” he said.

“Those who were supposedly caring for them either abused or were complicit.”

The inquiry was run from 2007 – 2010.

Claiming for care home compensation

Being a victim of care home abuse can be an incredibly traumatising experience. In many situations a person is in a care home because they require additional help and assistance, and anyone who chooses to abuse them is simply exploiting this situation. 

If you know someone who has been abused in a care home, or you personally have been the victim of abuse in this manner, you could be eligible to make a compensation claim to cover any medical or psychological trauma that you have sustained.
