Read Anne Longfield’s Huffington Post blog about her visit to Iceland to see Barnahus in action:
“One model that is gaining increased attention from specialists and across Government is the Barnahus … an innovative model that supports [child sexual abuse] victims. It has proved so successful there that the number of convictions of perpetrators has more than doubled. Importantly, the process significantly lowers the chances of children being re-traumatised by having to relive their experiences in open court.”
