During the 2 part documentary (on Netflix) Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story, Welsh journalist Meirion Jones, speaks of being concerned as a small child at the free access Jimmy Savile had to Duncroft Approved School in Surrey. He would visit his aunt there; she was the Head of the School which housed girls aged between 15 & 17 who were regarded as "emotionally disturbed".

Surrey police in 2015 said there were 46 sexual assaults by Savile of 22 of those girls while Savile was visiting there.

There are other allegations of Savile sexually abusing children in other children's homes too.
