Fred & Rose West: A British Horror Story

2025

Fred & Rose West: A British Horror Story (2025) tells the story of the investigation which led to the discovery that Fred & Rosemary West – between 1967 and 1987 – had murdered at least 12 young girls & women.

Victims included their 2 daughters and several girls who had been in the care system: 15 year old Carole Ann Cooper who was living in a children’s home; 15 year old Shirley Hubbard who had grown up in foster care; and 16 year old Alison Jane Chamber who was living in a care home when she went missing.

Fred West killed himself in prison on 1 January 1995. He had “verbally admitted” to 11 murders.

Rosemary West was convicted of 10 murders & is serving time in HM Prison New Hall in West Yorkshire.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
