Statement in relation to the sentencing of former employee, Paul Lipscombe

11 November 2025

We would like to praise the girls and their families, as well as Leicestershire Police, for their bravery and courage in bringing Paul Lipscombe to justice for his horrendous crimes.

Following Lipscombe’s arrest in April 2024, we immediately suspended him before dismissing him from his administrative, non-patient facing role in June 2024.

The Trust has and will continue to support Leicestershire Police with its investigations and has carried out its own internal review - nothing has been identified at this stage to indicate this individual’s criminal activity was committed as part of their role.

For anyone who would like to report information or possible offences committed by Lipscombe, visit: Public Portal

You can also call Leicestershire Police on 101. In an emergency always call 999.
