“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

They Weren’t Treating the Condition — They Were Creating It.



⟡ “I Didn’t Just Disclose Disability. I Told Them They Caused It.” ⟡
A formal email to Westminster social worker Kirsty Hornal and a dozen inter-agency recipients disclosing trauma, naming the emotional and respiratory harm safeguarding had caused, and stating — calmly, legally, and without exaggeration — that what had happened was a crime. They received it. They replied with scheduling.

Email from Polly Chromatic to Kirsty Hornal detailing years of institutional pressure, the clinical acquisition of PTSD and muscle dysphonia, and the emotional toll of constant surveillance. Sent across medical, legal, and educational teams. The diagnosis is the legacy — and the evidence is in.


I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic, under legal and medical pressure, wrote a clear, legally framed, emotionally contained email — sent to Westminster Children’s Services and copied across multiple agencies. It included:

  • A formal scheduling response: compliance, not refusal

  • A written disability disclosure:

    “I have eosinophilic asthma, muscle dysphonia and PTSD”

  • A causal link:

    “I’ve acquired PTSD because of safeguarding harassment”

  • A legal conclusion:

    “It’s definitely a crime”

  • And a truth rarely acknowledged:

    “You’re harming people and calling it concern. It’s not concern.”

No shouting. No spirals. Just clarity, collapse, and accountability — sent directly to the people who caused it.


II. What the Email Establishes

  • That the disabilities were caused by Westminster’s conduct

  • That the parent was still compliant, still cooperative

  • That the State was directly told it was the source of trauma

  • That legal and medical professionals were all made aware

  • That the safeguarding narrative had inverted:
    The parent wasn’t protected. The parent was injured.


III. Why SWANK Filed It

Because when a parent tells you, in writing, that your intervention caused them lifelong harm — and your response is to offer another time slot — that’s not care. That’s procedural denial. And the only thing more dangerous than silence is institutional deafness.

SWANK archived this because:

  • It’s a trauma impact statement disguised as a calendar update

  • It proves institutional knowledge of harm

  • It shows that “compliance” didn’t protect the parent — it only revealed the State's indifference

  • It’s a document of informed, exhausted truth-telling — sent to the people who needed to hear it most


IV. Violations

  • Equality Act 2010 –
    • Section 20: Adjustment ignored after harm caused
    • Section 26: Harassment described in medical terms
    • Section 27: Retaliation evident in continued intrusion

  • Human Rights Act 1998 –
    • Article 3: Inhuman treatment by administrative repetition
    • Article 8: Destruction of safe family space by coercive presence

  • Children Act 1989 –
    • Harm to parent creates harm to children
    • Failure to assess impact of State action on family functioning

  • Social Work England Code –
    • Acknowledged harm not investigated
    • Ethical failing after disability acquisition


V. SWANK’s Position

When someone tells you “This is killing me,” and your reply is “What about next Tuesday?”, you are not a support service. You are an institutional hazard. And when the condition you're meant to accommodate is the one you caused, you don’t need training — you need accountability.

SWANK London Ltd. classifies this as a formal disability acquisition statement — legally admissible, medically relevant, and procedurally damning.
