CURB
Children Under Risk from Bullying & Beyond

A calm, accessible resource built from lived experience (1991–2026)
CURB is a public‑facing archive created to help families, carers, professionals, and governance bodies understand how safeguarding, clinical, and systemic failures can unfold — and how they can be prevented.
Born from lived experience and three decades of documentation, CURB brings clarity to situations that often feel confusing, overwhelming, or hidden. All personal details have been anonymised for safety.
Everything you need is already here on the site. CURB no longer takes on individual cases, but the full archive is available for anyone who needs guidance, insight, or reassurance.
What CURB Offers
CURB provides clear, accessible information across four areas:
Practical steps for parents, sample letters, and national frameworks across the UK.
Real‑world examples showing how failures can repeat across schools, healthcare, welfare, finance, and public services.
A detailed record of how clinical decisions, governance processes, and safeguarding responsibilities can diverge from evidence.
Plain‑language guides, timelines, contradiction matrices, and structured documentation methods.
Everything is written to be emotionally clear, easy to follow, and accessible to anyone — whether you’re a parent, a professional, or someone trying to understand your own situation.

A Note from the Founder
CURB is built from lived experience, long‑term advocacy, and decades of documentation. Due to ongoing health needs and caring responsibilities, the founder can no longer take on personal cases — but the archive remains active, updated, and freely available.
CURB exists to make visible what is often hidden: the structures, decisions, and patterns that shape safeguarding, clinical practice, and governance across the UK.
