I delivered a petition of 50,000 signatures to 10 Downing Street today, to mark the eve of Daniel’s serious case review report, due to be made public tomorrow.
With me were other mums and Pete Saunders, CEO of NAPAC (National Association for People Abused in Childhood).
53,000 have now signed – please keep them coming, our petition is very much open and we hope to get many more signatures this week in the height of media and public interest.
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.
Please sign the petition for a new law to help better protect vulnerable children like Daniel Pelka at www.change.org/danielslaw
