We're working to make the justice system transparent and accountable.

We obtain hidden evidence and expose failures to drive reform.

Vital evidence about how the justice system works – and fails – is routinely hidden from public view. Court transcripts can cost hundreds of pounds for a single hearing. Victims struggle to access their own case records. Patterns of institutional failure remain buried behind paywalls and administrative barriers, making meaningful scrutiny nearly impossible.

We believe transparency is essential to accountability. When the public can see how the system operates, reform becomes possible.

We crowdfund to obtain court documents that would otherwise stay locked away. We publish evidence of institutional failures. We work to ensure that inquiries and investigations face proper scrutiny and deliver real accountability.

Right now, much of our work focuses on grooming gang cases. We've crowdfunded to acquire official transcripts from landmark trials. We're publishing these documents to expose patterns of system failure. We're also working directly with victims to help them secure their own transcripts, and pushing to ensure the upcoming public inquiry is held to account.

As we grow, our work will expand to other areas where transparency can drive meaningful reform in the justice system.

Latest updates

We're navigating complex court systems to request these transcripts learning and documenting the process as we go while developing victim-centered ways to share them.

As often as possible we'll keep you updated on our progress and what we learn about our legal system's barriers to access via email.
