I. When All the Agencies Fail, You Send One Letter That Names Them All
This complaint was submitted to the Local Safeguarding Children Partnerships (LSCP) for:
Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC)
Westminster City Council (WCC)
It alleges:
Retaliatory safeguarding threats following lawful complaint
Multi-agency breach of written-only disability adjustments
Coercive escalation tactics targeting a disabled mother under the guise of “concern”
Cross-agency silence coordinated by shared culpability, not child welfare
What they framed as support,
SWANK returned as indictment — legally structured, timestamped, and unrepentant.
II. Not a Breakdown. A Coordinated Theatre of Procedure
This isn’t about error.
This is about:
Email threats masquerading as invitations
Medical vulnerability ignored in service of bureaucratic dominance
“Team Around the Family” meetings weaponised as evidentiary traps
Retaliation delivered in pastel-toned stationery from unqualified professionals
This isn’t a misunderstanding.
It is abuse under a safeguarding header.
III. Why SWANK Filed It
Because safeguarding is not a tool for vengeance.
Because lawful resistance should not trigger family surveillance.
Because a mother who asserts her rights does not become a risk — she becomes a respondent.
Let the record show:
The safeguarding escalation had no legal basis
The disability adjustment was known and breached
The risk came from the agencies, not the home
And SWANK — named every party, by job title and jurisdiction
IV. SWANK’s Position
We do not consider “multi-agency” an excuse for distributed cowardice.
We do not accept that a professional title overrides a documented disability breach.
We do not mistake surveillance for support.
Let the record show:
The parent was compliant.
The system retaliated.
The safeguarding threshold was invented.
And SWANK — dismantled the theatre, clause by clause.
This isn’t a complaint.
It’s a forensic reclassification of power abuse — written for audit, not sympathy.
