Our call for accountability

Why we’re demanding truth, accountability, justice, compensation and closure.

Overview

Why J4FHS exists

Concerns connected to Mohamed Fayed and Harrods have spanned decades. Survivor testimonies and independent investigations reveal systemic failures: abuse of power, inadequate safeguarding, and institutional silence.

The campaign demands:

  • Transparency and openness

  • Robust safeguarding standards

  • Full acknowledgment of past failures

  • Independent review of how concerns were handled

  • Stronger protections for staff in powerful institutions

This movement exists because real people were harmed, and because institutions must be held accountable for the systems that failed them.

Demands

What we’re calling for

These are the core aims of the movement, grounded in survivor experience and informed by reported testimony, and essential to accountability.

Truth

Exposing the full extent of the abuse, uncovering the systemic failures that allowed it to continue and ensuring that the experiences of survivors are fully documented, acknowledged and preserved.

Accountability

Every individual and institution that enabled, ignored or concealed concerns must be held responsible. No system should protect power at the expense of people.

Justice

We call for parliamentary select committee hearings to question those who knew and those who helped to conceal it, criminal prosecution where applicable, and full accountability at every level. Justice requires transparency, truth and a willingness to confront the systemic failures that allowed a predator to operate with impunity for over four decades.

Compensation

Survivors deserve compensation that reflects the harm they endured and its long-lasting impact - not as charity, but as a responsibility. Institutions must acknowledge the damage caused and take ownership for addressing it.

Closure

Every survivor has the right to be heard, believed, and able to move forward without living in the shadows of the past. Closure means truth, recognition and the assurance that this can never happen again.
