Panorama: Season 2018, Episode 4

2018 - 4: Addicted: Last Chance Mums

Panorama examines the rising issue of newborns being taken into care after being born to mothers who are drug addicts. Many of these women have had children permanently removed before. In this film, Panorama has been given exclusive access to one of the only residential units in the country trying to break this cycle, Trevi House in Plymouth. The film follows mothers and their babies undergoing intensive treatment as the mothers try to prove they are fit to be parents. The stakes could not be higher - if they fail they will lose their babies forever.
