We close on almost 58,000 tonight for Daniel’s Law

Please write to your MP to call for debate of Daniel’s Law; a draft letter will be sent to all who have signed via Change.org very soon.

I will let you know when I hear back from Nick Clegg. Lobbying for a new law is inevitably a lengthy process and I am encouraged to see support from new quarters daily – for instance, major law firm Irwin Mitchell is now publicly supporting our campaign, lending further expert legal credibility.

See also discussion thread on www.schoolimprovement.net, where Daniel’s Law is presented for comment – add your views. Most importantly, keep signing, keep tweeting, keep sharing.

Why Daniel’s Law?

This aim of this campaign is to make it the law to come to the aid of children in distress by reporting child abuse, as it already is in many other countries.

Four-year-old Daniel Pelka was starved and mistreated in full view of his primary school teachers and teaching assistants, who observed his desperate attempts to forage for food, his severe weight-loss and the numerous bruises on his body, before his death at the hands of his mother and step-father.
