Brought Up In The Care System

Brought Up In The Care System This page is where you can share your experiences of what it was like for you being brought up in the Namely Summerdown Road, and Dacre Road Children's Home.

I spent my entire childhood in care, and I would like to share some of my experiences and hopefully meet up with long lost friends and others whom have had similar experiences. Also I hope you can share some of your experience of being in the care system. The Children Homes of where I was brought up were in Eastbourne. These were local authority run Children Home and Summerdown Road Home was previ

ously a Dr.Banardos Children's Home before I was there. Previously to these Homes I was in Thornwick Nursery Children's Home in Selwyn Road from the age of two years old until the age of five years old (1963 - 1965). Then was moved to the Children Homes above until I left the Children's home age fifteen years old in 1975, to stay with foster parents until I left the care system at seventeen years old.
