A decade on from #WinterbourneView – where are we now? learningdisabilitytoday.co.uk/a-decade-on-fr…
This is Ella.
Ella is 6. She is also autistic & has learning disabilities.
I hope I can be here for her for a long time. When I can't - I'm trusting my colleagues to remember this little girl when she is an adult in need of care.

Lots of tweets about #WinterbourneView today. It’s important to remember that what people are calling for today, should have been happening yesterday, and some of those calling for it have historically been in positions to influence and effect change.

New report “Tea, smiles, and empty promises' features the shocking experiences of families who have suffered because of the #WinterbourneView scandal. They and thousands of others have been failed by government. Demand change: buff.ly/3bYbpft #Winterbourne10YearsOn
10 years ago I watched #WinterbourneView on Panorama, fearful that my son could end up in an ATU. He did. 370 miles from home for 16 months. He isn't ill. He is autistic and has learning disabilities. There was no treatment for him. There has not been enough change.
'It is vital that the Minister’s stated ambition is matched by the swift implementation of tangible recommendations set out in this report.' 10 years since #winterbourneview , another report & recommendations. Will Helen Whately finally take action? committees.parliament.uk/publications/6…
