Teens in care ’without food and duvet’ - BBC Newsnight

A warning: this report does contain some distressing images. Subscribe to our channel here: Children are taken into care so the state can protect them. But Newsnight has heard from children who were taken into care and then placed in a home where they say they were desperate for food and two say they weren’t even provided with a duvet. They were living in so called “supported accommodation” – a type of unregulated home. In our latest report on Britain’s Hidden Children’s Homes our social affairs editor, Katie Razzall, investigates one home run by a company that was paid huge sums to look after those children. Newsnight is the BBC’s flagship news and current affairs TV programme - with analysis, debate, exclusives, and robust interviews. Website: Twitter: Facebook:
