Islington Support Payment Scheme
Apply for a support payment if you experienced abuse while placed by Islington Council in its children's homes between 1966 to 1995.
The scheme has been designed to be straightforward and tries to minimise the need to relive past trauma or further trauma as much as possible. However, we understand this process may be difficult and so there is support available through Islington Council or independent organisations such as the Islington Survivors Network (ISN).
