Boarding School Survivors was founded in 1990 and has two principal activities. They research, lecture, write, and broadcast about the psychological effects of sending children away to school, and the social system which has encouraged this process.
Secondly, they run a programme of therapeutic workshops for adults who have experienced boarding school. These courses, which have been running for over ten years, receive referrals from GPs, community organisations and counsellors, and have benefited many people. In some cases they are able to offer individual counselling, psychotherapy, or supervision. Publications are available.
