Charity Worker Accused of Misusing Survivor’s Funds | Sheffield News
About this episode
A charity worker in Sheffield admits to taking funds from a sexual abuse survivor but denies wrongdoing.
A charity worker accused of fraud in Sheffield Crown Court admits it was morally wrong to take £16,000 from a sexual abuse survivor’s compensation—but denies abusing her position. The survivor, who felt Kelwick saved her life, gave her the money in two installments, insisting she keep it. Kelwick, aware of workplace rules against accepting cash, didn’t report it fearing job loss. Prosecutors say she knowingly defrauded the survivor; the defense argues it was a heartfelt gift, not theft. The trial continues as the court weighs gratitude against guilt.
