Featured across BBC News, the Scottish Daily Express, The Scotsman and the Daily Mail, Holly Alex’s story has brought national attention to the realities of Scotland’s care system and the voices too often left unheard.
“Holly Alex’s gripping story of life as a child in care is brave, inspirational and horrifying.”- The Scotsman, 2026
What happens when the system meant to protect a child becomes the one that nearly destroys them?
I Thought You Cared. Is a raw and harrowing true memoir of survival inside Scotland’s care system, a system that promised safety, but delivered silence, control and harm.
