Episode 1 - A Warm Shoulder: Using History to Empower Young Women - Brighter Futures

This blog was written by Professor Tracey Loughran with Kate Mahoney and Daisy Payling from the Body, Self, and Family project. We recently launched the toolkit – Bodies, Hearts, and Minds: Using the Past to Empower the Future. The toolkit uses historical sources to help young people think differently about their emotional and bodily wellbeing in the present, and their capacity to make change in the future.

Jimmy Savile: how the Netflix documentary fails to address the role institutions play in abuse

Jimmy Savile: how the Netflix documentary fails to address the role institutions play in abuse

Jimmy Savile was one of the UK’s most serious serial sexual predators. Over several decades the television personality groomed and abused up to 1,000 boys and girls in TV studios as well as patients at NHS hospitals across Britain. That he was able to do so without being apprehended, even being knighted in 1990, is the subject of a new Netflix documentary series by Rowan Deacon.
