[UK] Bodies of 'hundreds' of children buried in mass grave.

Lanark's not too far from me.

Strangely it's next door neighbour "New Lanark" is the site where modern ideas on social care were first founded in the UK.
In the 18th Century, entrepreneur and enlightened social reformer Robert Owen founded a woolen mill with good accommodation for poorer families, fair wages, education, healthcare and the worlds First Every workplace nursery!
It pioneered all of the "modern" ideas about safe and happy workplaces & social care itself.

So sad that over a hundred years later just up the road "hundreds" of children were being mistreated and then buried in unmarked mass graves. Another shining example of the virtue of religious institutions.

I feel a little bit sick just thinking about it.
