With no interviews this week as Peter enjoys a well-earned family break, we are releasing some previous content from our archives that were broadcast before we launched our podcast.
As relevant today, if not more so.
Hearts of Oak travelled to Rotherham to spend the day with Elizabeth who is a Grooming Gang Survivor.
She took us to the very institutions which were supposed to protect her and thousands of girls like her.
Rotherham council failed.
Child services failed.
South Yorkshire police failed.
This is her story.
Elizabeth has written a book since this interview on her experiences; it is a harrowing account but must be read to understand what the victims have gone through.
Available on Amazon in paperback, e-book and in spoken word on Audible
