We will add links to further Church of England reviews in time. In the meantime, ‘lessons learnt reviews’ as they are commonly known can be found on the Church’s main website or on individual diocesan pages. We would add that it seems to take many years and many reviews for obvious lessons to be learnt!
The entries below are listed in chronological order, to follow the timeline from the first correspondence (top) to last correspondence (bottom).
WARNING: Please be aware that the reviews below contain distressing content. Please exercise self-care. Should you need support, please visit one of the services listed here. There is a Quick Exit button on the bottom of your screen.

Three links to statements on the diocesan website about the review have disappeared from the site and draw a ‘Page not found’. We are not sure why. However, House of Survivors has located a copy of the content which can be referred to here or externally, here.
