My name is Sammy Woodhouse, I am a survivor of the Rotherham child abuse scandal. In August 2013 The Times newspaper published my story which led to the Alexis Jay Inquiry and the opening of the criminal investigations in South Yorkshire now known as Operation Stovewood.

In 2016, Hussain was found guilty of 23 child sex offences and is currently serving a 35 year prison sentence. After testifying against him, I was made to relive the trauma again as in 2018 Rotherham Council invited my rapist Hussain into legal proceedings which meant he could apply for parental rights or full custody over my son.

In 2018 I launched my campaign to change the law gaining nearly 500,000 petition signatures and the support of government officials.

I am now fundraising to ensure my work Sammy Woodhouse Petition can continue to change the law.

Your grant/donation is much appreciated.
