Details of the abuse of children in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire began to emerge in 2010, when former residents of community homes made allegations to police. Many of them concerned the notorious Beechwood home in Mapperley, which was later described by a judge as the “home from hell”.
In 2011, Nottinghamshire Police launched Operation Daybreak to investigate alleged physical and sexual abuse at Beechwood and other linked homes; then in 2014 Operation Xeres began, looking at abuse at Skegby Hall in Sutton-in-Ashfield and nine other homes.
