We are overwhelmed by the support we have received. Thank you to every single person who has signed, shared, commented and helped raise awareness.

The response has shown we are not alone and that there are serious safeguarding gaps in a system that families trust to help keep children safe.

Today our story and this petition has been featured by the BBC, helping bring further attention to the issues raised by our case and the need for a review of the DBS system.

However, 21,000 signatures is not the finish line.

Every additional signature strengthens our position and increases the pressure for meaningful change. We want decision-makers to understand that this is not an isolated concern.

Please continue to support us by:

• Sharing the petition with friends, family and colleagues
• Sharing the petition and BBC article on social media
• Talk to your local MP and ask them to support a review of the DBS system
