The London Borough of Lambeth have confirmed that the Redress scheme closes on Saturday, 1 January 2022 at 5pm. This is just six weeks away.

Unless there are very exceptional circumstances, any application made after this date will not be considered.

The Lambeth Redress Scheme pays compensation to people who were abused or lived in fear of being abused while in Lambeth’s care as children. The scheme is for those who lived in or visited a Lambeth children’s home (including those at Shirley Oaks) or attended Shirley Oaks Primary School.

By July 2021:

• 1,887 people have made applications

• more than £71.5 million has been paid out of the scheme

Remedy Law have represented 104 of those 1887 applicants to the Scheme and are especially experienced in pursuing applications on behalf of the deceased.

To ensure that you receive the redress and closure you are entitled to please do not miss the deadline.
