The Speaking Out investigation was established by Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust to investigate the very serious allegations of criminality made against Jimmy Savile at Stoke Mandeville Hospital over many years.

Stoke Mandeville Hospital became part of Buckinghamshire Hospitals NHS Trust in 2003, which then became Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust in 2010.  It was the Trust’s responsibility to commission an investigation into what happened, when, where, to whom and why.

This investigation was undertaken alongside inquiries by other NHS organisations and the Department of Health. The Speaking Out Investigation is being independently overseen by Kate Lampard, on behalf of the Department of Health, to ensure that it is robust and any lessons for the NHS can be quickly shared and acted upon.
