A New Year of Hope: Legal Change in Memory of Two Sons ❤️
11 years ago, a heart-wrenching tragedy shook us all. Claire Throssell’s sons, Jack and Paul, were lured to a house fire by their own father. Today, in their memory, Claire has championed a significant step forward in child protection laws—a testament to her resilience and love.
The government’s recent announcement marks a major shift. The presumption that both parents should maintain contact with their children, even amid potential harm, will be repealed. It’s a milestone that Claire, made an MBE for her advocacy, passionately fought for. “Children can’t wait,” she insists, pushing for rapid legal changes to prevent further tragedies.
Sir Keir Starmer praised Claire’s unyielding courage at a heartfelt meeting at 10 Downing Street. Her fight is not just for her boys but for countless children at risk. Women’s Aid, alongside Claire, heralds this as a pivotal moment for families affected by domestic abuse. The focus? Ensuring children’s voices are heard, and they are shielded from harm.
A positive change is coming, one that will save lives. Claire shares her hope, driven by love, that this change will protect other families from enduring such pain. Let’s applaud this brave mum and look forward to immediate action from the authorities to enact this critical legal reform.
Let’s stand by her vision of a safer future for our children. 🌟
