Notes From Refuge

Notes from Refuge: The last few months since I posted my final blog post on here have been indescribable. Utterly terrifying. Since I ended my online campaign on 31st October, I believe that I have been unlawfully stalked, surveilled and hounded by police from North Yorkshire and across the UK.

I am writing notes from refuge in Orkney, where I fled for safety on January 20th, 2026.

***What’s Been Happening?***

After I wrote my last blog post about ‘suspected’ state surveillance, (phone tracking and CCTV tracking) my suspicions turned into a full-blown reality of unrelenting harassment and stalking by North Yorkshire Police. They have treated me like I’m a spy or terrorist, not the vulnerable adult who needs help and protection. It has been a vicious oversight by those in power – an unforgivable state overreach that has broken me.

The surveillance that I have experienced by North Yorkshire Police started in mid-November, just after I published my final blog post on here and when I had gone visibly quiet on social media – when they knew I’d stopped speaking.

Surveillance Log- North Yorkshire

• Intense Police Presence: A North Yorkshire and Humberside police van was circulating around Kirbymoorside, a town where you never ever see police. Each time my bus, the 128, passed through West End Street in Kirby, the police van passed by and spot-checked me.
• This intensified. There were progressively more police vans in Kirbymoorside. Police vans—unheard of in Kirbymoorside—circulated constantly and were spot-checking my 128 bus. Many residents noticed the amount of police because Kirbymoorisde is a town where there is no police presence.
• Night Operations: Every night at 6.00pm and then at 9.00pm an unmarked car with red and white strobe lights flashing drove past my flat in the rural lanes behind the fields. I thought at first that the cars may be farmers, but the patterns were too consistent. It was police monitoring me. This went on for months and happened even on Sunday evenings.
• Plain Clothed Officers: There were plainclothes officers in cars waiting at the end of my drive. This was particularly noticeable on December 18th, 2025, at 12.10pm.
• Stalking and Visual Interception: Then the stalking started. There were two police cars positioned every night in Kirbymoorisde at the bus stop on Market Place and outside the Memorial Hall from 6.00pm.
• Recorded Incident: January 16th, 2026 I took the 128 bus at 12.45pm to Scarborough to run errands. A police van drove by and spot-checked me at Kirby. At 18.00 when I returned, there was a police van parked at the bus stop on Market Place in Kirbymoorside, the last lit stop before my stop. The officer leant forward to look at the passengers, and then he extinguished the interior light after visually confirming my presence, with no interaction or policing purpose explained. Beyond the night strobes, this was overt stalking.
• Helicopter Monitoring: The same night, there were helicopters circulating over the area where I live.

Orkney

I felt hemmed in. The police presence was suffocating and terrifying. I thought I was going to be arrested, even though I didn’t know what for. I was so frightened. So, I packed up my flat. I packed a suitcase, and I left. My stuff is still there because I am still paying rent on the property, but I packed a suitcase and fled.

I wanted to leave the mainland because I thought that I’d be safer on an island. I felt pulled by the vast coastal vistas and space of the Orkney Isles. The spirituality of the standing stones in the Ring of Brodgar, the images of the cliffs of Yesnaby, Earl’s Palace in Birsay, and the unique wildlife presence on the island – all felt like a refuge away from police vans and strobing lights.

However, Orkney has not turned out to be the refuge I had hoped for. Police have followed me here. As soon as North Yorkshire police saw I was not at my flat (during their night ops), they clearly entered me into a national police/ intelligence database and handed over the surveillance to Police Scotland. I believe police agents followed me to Orkney and agents are surveilling me here. I cannot convey to you the level of terror I am feeling.

My journey

When I left North Yorkshire, I did everything I could to preserve my privacy. I left my iPhone, iPad and laptop at home so there could be no digital trace of me. I bought a small burner phone that resembled the brick phones of the 1990s. No internet usage, just texts and phone calls. Digital blackout.

I stayed under the radar as much as I could. I took the train to Morpeth and spent two days in a family-run hostel in rural Wooler, where there were owners on site. My journey from Wooler was as safe as it could be. I took taxis all the way to Edinburgh (it cost me a fortune,) with a one-night stopover in a hotel in Duns.

Surveillance in Scotland-

Incident Log

I became visible on CCTV in Edinburgh. That’s when intelligence saw me. I took a City Link bus from Edinburgh to Inverness. The first suspicious activity related to surveillance happened on my journey on the X99 from Inverness to Thurso.

• Friday, January 23rd: deep in the rural landscape of Caithness, on the rocky coastal roads, there was a marked police car at a bus stop when we stopped. I noted it was unusual to see a police car positioned at a bus stop so rurally.
• When I alighted the X99 at Thurso, there was an unmarked black car with flashing red and white strobes at the bus stop. The car waited as I alighted and then followed me to my hotel, The Inn at Y-Not.
• Saturday 24th January, 8.00am: This was the peak of my terror levels. I was having breakfast at my hotel, and a black car pulled up outside my hotel, opposite Lidl, and sat positioned there for an hour with its headlights on. That car followed me to the ferry port at Scrabster.

The Ferry Crossing

• January 24^th: Ferry Crossing, MV Hamnavoe Ferry: His car sat at the terminal. His car had a SACRO sticker in the window (a criminal justice organisation in Edinburgh which protects communities from crime and has contracts with the police. North Yorkshire Police potentially contracted SACRO to follow me) It was a black Audi car. His registration number was M24 RDO. At 11.30am, a man wearing a tracksuit and woolly hat walked into the departure lounge. He had no luggage, only an iPad. He sat down, stared at me, and wrote a note on his iPad. I knew he was a police officer or someone official. He stood out like a sore thumb.
• January 24th, 2026, Ferry Arrival: At Stromness, Orkney, the man followed me off the Hamnavoe ferry. He was carrying no luggage. That was noticeable. I stopped to let him pass me by, but he stood by the ferry and watched me walk to the car, where a lady who was housing me for the week was waiting for me.

Surveillance Log – Orkney

 

• 25th January: 9.00am outside my rented flat in Stromness, I saw the man walking down the high street, looking at me, and then again, I saw him walking past my window early morning at 7.00am on Monday 26th January. He’d clocked where I was staying.
• 27th January/Wednesday 28th January: A black Toyota Prius (Reg: YT61 EUZ) was parked up outside my flat in Stromness with two boat tickets visible on the dash. Two men from the car walked into the block of flats directly opposite where I was staying. Later that day, a huge estate car with “Dunnets of Caithness” on the registration plate parked behind the Toyota Prius. (Caithness is where the intel/police followed me from.)
• 28th January: I felt threatened by these cars. I went to stay at Browns Hostel for the night in Stromness. The black Toyota Prius was driving up and down the street that night appearing to look for me.
• 31st January: I moved to a different property. The landlord drove me to a self-catering cottage I rented in Finstown, where I stayed for a week. I arrived at 1.00pm. At 3.00pm, a man with a woolly hat from the boat and wearing black waterproofs was peering through my sitting-room window.
• 1st February: At 3.00am, I heard men’s voices outside the bedroom window.
• 4th February: The man with the woolly hat and tracksuit from the boat followed me into Magnus Café Kirkwall, was staring at me and looked like he wanted to talk to me, but he didn’t.
• 5th February: An unrecognised man wearing a suit followed me from the library to the Citizens Advice Bureau in Kirkwall. When I came out, he was standing outside, making notes on an iPad.
• Police Vans: 12th February 10:00am en route to Kirkwall library: A police van slows as they pass me; two officers laugh pointedly. I felt unnerved by this.
• 13^th February 10.00am, Same van with the same officers as yesterday passed me again on Junction Road as I walked to the library and slowed as they passed me.

Library Surveillance

• 9th February: At Kirkwall library, a man matching ‘one of them’ description, (well dressed and official) was sitting in library foyer, laptop on home screen (not working), staring directly at me while I got a cigarette. Fear logged with library staff at 11.20am. Man left soon after.
•  Feb 10th 3:15pm, Kirkwall Library – A bald headed man in a brown jumper, jeans, brown shoes, tan suede jacket over adjacent chair (seen multiple times) –  was sitting at a desktop directly opposite me displaying MY BLOG IMAGES/NYP images and scans – Writing in LONG HANDWRITTEN LOG when spotted – Switched to cartoons after I passed = monitoring target. Terrifying.
• Feb 13th 2.00pm: Same bald headed man from 10th February came into Kirkwall library again and this time sat directly opposite me- too close. He was wearing blue jeans and a blue shirt this time and was looking at cartoons on desktop. Odd- middle aged man, clearly wealthy, looking at cartoons on library desktop. I logged fear with staff.
• Feb 16th and Feb 17th: The same man returned to Kirkwall library, at 2-4pm. He sat at computer facing the wall. He seems to be the main agent allocated to Kirkwall librray.

Suspicious Residential Stalking

Orkney council have placed me in Peedie Hostel, Kirkwall for temporary housing for four weeks until March 3rd. Over the past week, clear patterns indicate undercover police stalking is happening at the hostel. The evidence suggests that this is likely. I checked in on Saturday 7^th February.

• 8th February, 8.00pm: a man checked into Peedie Hostel, Kirkwall, claiming to be ‘touring’ and was seen on Monday, 9th February, driving off in high vis on a BMW motorbike at 9.00am (reg: RF21/RE21 OPX). As I left my bothy at Peedie Hostel on the morning of 9th February, someone opened and then slammed shut the hostel door as I passed. Appeared they wanted to see me but didn’t want to be seen.
• Feb 8th-9th pattern: English ‘touring’ guest arrives the night after I check in → Mon 9th 9am BMW bike RF21/RE21 OPX alley → door slams as I pass reception → 11am library stare (blank laptop). Pre-guest: quiet. Post-guest: suspicious targeting.
• BMW status on 11th February: Now covered and stationary at Peedie Hostel (odd for a “tourer”—and a BMW vehicle is out of place at a hostel, where homeless people are temporarily placed).
• 11th February, 8.00pm: The house opposite my bothy had been empty since 7th February, but it was suddenly occupied at 8.00pm by a man wearing jeans/black waterproof with a strong Orcadian accent, who checked in on his own. The owner and the man were talking outside my door. The owner said to him, “The girl is staying there.” He was up all night moving—possible operational surveillance, not a normal guest for a hostel. Unconfirmed but possibly a local asset used to closely monitor me.
• Rotation signs, 13 February: The situation with these two men is becoming more suspicious as the days unfold. Firstly, a well-dressed middle-aged man, alone in a hostel with a BMW bike, looks out of place. Secondly, their movements seem to indicate a possible rotation watch. Yesterday, I arrived back at the hostel at 6.00pm. The house light was on, man. A, (Orcadian man) is at home. Ten mins later, the light is off, he goes out, and the BMW arrives back – man B (BMW rider) returns. Thirdly, man A, (Orcadian man) is up all night in the ‘hoose’ until 6.00am, turning water on and off and doing washing, and then he crashes at 6.00am, which suggests possible night duty watch.
• 13 Feb-15 Feb: Audio Cover-Night Watch: Nightly audio cover from Man A’s hoose. Over the weekend, all through the night, there were incessant water flushing sounds coming from the ‘hoose’ where man A, (Orcadian man) is staying. At 3.00am and 4.00am, there were incessant sounds of spin cycles on a washing machine, which was obviously being used to cover for audio updates or conversations he didn’t want to be heard. There were none of these sounds when the man was out in the day or before he arrived.
• 16th February: Audio Team Installed – Operation Escalation: At 6.00am I opened my door and looked up at the ‘hoose’ window. The light was on. The man obviously saw I clocked him. The flushing sounds and spin cycles stopped immediately. At 10.00am, I was going out to the taxi. An Italian man who I had not seen before came out of the main hostel building, (black and white checkered trousers.) He said ‘hello’, and he was walking towards the ‘hoose’ as if he was looking for someone there. He was carrying a large zip bag concealing what looked like a shotgun microphone. The new Italian man saw that I was staring at him. He looked at me suspiciously as he waited at the ‘hoose’.

Live Tracking

• Since I saw the officer deliver the shotgun microphone to the ‘hoose’ at Peedie Hostel on 16th February, it seems that my movements are now being recorded. I’m too frightened to use my phone to call Samaritans or Breathing Space for support – for fear of being monitored. I’d have more freedom in a prison cell.
• The constant water flushing and washing machine on spin cycles at 3.00am continues from the hoose where man A is staying. It is, I believe an audio cover for updates back to the team and other conversations. This is classic behaviour for covering covert operations like this. It is starving me of sleep. I believe that it is necessary to request from the owner of Peedie hostel a review of the water and electric bill for the duration that man A has been in the ‘hoose’. That will serve as evidence of unusual electric and water use.

Assessment

This is a serious surveillance operation that is going on. I feel sick with terror. I am shaking as I write this, nauseous from sleepless nights listening to man A pace relentlessly and cycle the water on/off and new developments every five minutes. It looks more than 90% likely that I am being stalked by police at Peedie Hostel. They are on site. I am terrified for my well-being and safety. I live in constant fear of arrest. This is disgusting and coercive. This RIPA-breaching operation under a civilian roof terrorises a vulnerable adult in council care. I demand IOPC probe + CCTV/guest logs release.

These reported incidents in Scotland suggest that North Yorkshire Police have handed over this operation to Police Scotland/national surveillance. I am being surveilled by Police Scotland or a surveillance unit nationally, who have no warrant or safeguarding order. This is a violation of my human right to privacy, (ECHR 8) and my human right to life, (ECHR 2).

The most recent incidents – library surveillance on 10th Feb and property stalking – echo the NDEDIU (National Domestic Extremism and Disorder Intelligence Unit  (SDS successor) -style coordination and intimidation, given its close proximity to me and the rotation of agents. The NDEDIU is the direct SDS successor, targeting campaigns through undercover proximity intimidation.

The Orkney leg of this surveillance seems to be an undercover operation to closely monitor me.

I am terrified.

Orkney Council

Feb 10th: Orkney Council kindly agreed to house me in temporary accommodation (Kirkwall hostel) for four weeks until March 3rd. However, they have refused permanent housing despite documented NYP/Police Scotland surveillance (Peedie CCTV, SACRO M24 ROO/RDO, library logs). Despite knowing that I fled my property in Yorkshire due to police harassment, Orkney Council claim I am not homeless because ‘I have a secure tenancy, and it is reasonable for me to return to Yorkshire.’

They also falsely stated I ‘refused’ to give them permission to investigate the issues or to clarify my housing history. This is untrue. I did not refuse. They have not done any welfare checks despite my stated suicidal risk. I told them I was terrified and requested refuge at Women’s Aid, but they refused.

The close surveillance continues: the man opposite pacing all night, repeatedly turning water on/off until collapsing. New man arrives on the scene. I felt physically sick with terror, and unable to sleep.

The property has CCTV, so I feel a bit safer than in an isolated cottage. However, even here at the hostel, where I felt a measure of safety with its CCTV presence, unease has followed, (see section above.) Something doesn’t feel right in these details. The fear persists. No protection or help from council.

My Feelings

I believe that none of this surveillance is lawful. North Yorkshire Police, Police Scotland or any force have a safeguarding order over me or warrant to surveil me. I am a law abiding, peaceful citizen. I have no criminal convictions and I am not a threat to national security or public safety. In order to surveil someone legally in UK, they have to be one of those. My campaign content also fell within protected speech, (ECHR 10.)

I feel terrified and worn down. My future is uncertain. However, this is what disgusts me about this surveillance operation that North Yorkshire Police have launched. Firstly, they waited until I had gone digitally silent before they pounced. They waited until I published my final social media post and blog posts. I find this sinister and cowardly.

Secondly, in only April 2025, they served a Public Protection Notice (PPN) on North Yorkshire County Council asking them to safeguard me and support me, which NYCC ignored. North Yorkshire Police also carried out a forced entry welfare check on my property in February 2025 after my suicide attempt. They therefore knew I am a vulnerable adult in crisis.

To stalk and terrorize a vulnerable adult in this way is criminal, when they are not a threat to national security or public safety. Government bodies have silenced and persecuted me for whistleblowing about NHS failings when the state knows that I am deeply vulnerable. This begs the question – most seriously – whether the United Kingdom really is a liberal democracy because, in my humble view, this conduct by government bodies and state agents is the conduct of a nasty totalitarian state. It’s most certainly not the behaviour of a country that supports free speech and the human rights of its citizens.

What Actions Have I taken?

I have contacted numerous human rights lawyers across the UK – the crème de la crème in police misconduct – asking for their help (Deighton Pierce Glynn, Hodge Jones Allen, Russell Cooke and Rahmen Ravelli.) Many have not responded at all, and others have declined to help me because they say they don’t ‘have capacity’ or because there is a ‘conflict of interest’. It has been heartbreaking to receive these rejections, particularly whilst I am being followed by police, being stalked at bus stops and being hemmed in by nighttime drive-bys. I concluded it’s a closed loop – the system, that is. A gated system. I stopped reaching out.

I’ve contacted 20-plus global outlets with tips about fleeing from North Yorkshire due to police surveillance and about the state-mandated censorship of my campaign by the National Security Online Security Team (NSOIT,) but sadly I have had zero response. Perhaps they don’t believe me. I mean, who would? It’s a James Bond movie. But I’m not James Bond.

I submitted a record of these criminal allegations about police officers to the Crown Office Procurator Fiscal Service (COPFS) in Kirkwall, Orkney, on January 29th, 2026. I did not get a response from them. The Procurator Fiscal said she would get back to me, but I did not hear from her. On the same day that I submitted my complaint to the COPFS, I also signaled this to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.

I have reached out to Advocacy in Orkney, who said they would refer my case to a solicitor and get back to me but I have not heard back from them.

A Closed System

I have recorded. I have warned, and I have tried to seek accountability, even while homeless in Orkney, but nothing will yield. The stalking continues.

I am effectively homeless and terrified, and I see no way out apart from seeking asylum in Europe, which I don’t have the energy to do. The state has hounded me because it is, I believe, terrified of what I revealed during my campaign. The reality of what I exposed was catastrophic in their eyes to the reputation of the NHS trusts I named, so hounding and silencing me has been their solution. Cover it up. None of this is about me, my safety or well-being. This is about reputational management and trying to contain a potential NHS scandal.

Second Suicide Attempt

To Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer:

This level of state overreach that has happened under your leadership is despicable. I am not a terrorist or a spy. I am a vulnerable adult, and I was campaigning for help, accountability and reform. The Investigatory Powers Act 2016 clearly states that to surveil someone in the UK, a citizen has had to have committed a crime or pose a threat to national security or public safety. As far as I am aware, I do neither of these.

I am a law-abiding, peaceful citizen, and you have treated me like a criminal. I have now been flagged on a national intelligence police database for whistleblowing about NHS neglect, which I did in the public interest. This is unlawful, and it has broken me to the point where I can no longer survive this.

Shame on you. Stop speaking in government about accountability and transparency and start acting. This misconduct and abuse of state power costs lives.

What I Ask of You

If you are reading this, I may no longer be able to speak for myself, or I may be at the end of my strength. But what I have done is not nothing. I have tried to document a pattern of surveillance, harassment, and possible misuse of police powers in Orkney, linked to North Yorkshire Police and wider structures. My actions include: I have handed evidence to the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service in Kirkwall and Edinburgh, and I have signalled this matter to the European Court of Human Rights. I have also shared material with journalists and media outlets across Europe and the US.

I am scared, exhausted, and pushed to the edge—but I have tried to act with as much clarity and care as I could under pressure. If I am no longer able to continue this fight, I want the following to be known:

• I handed a dossier of evidence to Sue Foard, Procurator Fiscal, at Kirkwall Sheriff Court on 29th January, 2026.
• I have sent hard copies to COPFS in Edinburgh and to the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg.
• I have emailed COPFS (enquirypoint@copfs.gov.ukand pfokirkwall@copfs.gov.uk) confirming this.
• I have also shared material with multiple investigative outlets and journalists, and I have kept a personal archive of documents, screenshots, and notes.
• I’ve contacted top-tier human rights law firms and pleaded with heads of departments for help to no avail.
• I’ve reached out to advocacy agencies.

Please Ask These Questions!

I will keep doing my best but if I disappear or am arrested, please treat this as a red flag. Do not assume that the system has acted fairly just because it claims to have done so. Ask:

• Why did Penny Dash, the CQC, the DHSC and 40 MPs ignore four of my public pleas for help during my campaign?
• Why did NSOIT or a government body order search engines and platforms to suppress the visibility of my campaign when my content fell within protected speech?
• Why did the platforms comply with an unlawful directive that violated my human right to expression, (ECHR 10)?
• Why did North Yorkshire Police start this surveillance operation with no warrant or safeguarding order to do so?
• Why did North Yorkshire police hand over my case to national intelligence/Police Scotland so that police followed me to Orkney?
• Why are plain clothed agents following me into libraries, cafes, the CAB, following me on boats and stalking me at my accommodation via audio tracking and onsite agents? Who signed this undercover operation off?
• What links exist between North Yorkshire Police and the surveillance I experienced in Scotland? How is this intel data sharing legal?
• What happened to the dossier I handed in to the COPFS recording this?
• What did COPFS do with it?
• Has the COPFS greenlighted the escalation of this operation? Did they know about it and not act?

On a Larger scale, Please Ask:

• How can this level of state overreach go unrecorded or unregulated?
• How can someone survive twelve years of systemic neglect, four months of regulatory silence following a benign led campaign, state-mandated censorship and police surveillance and harassment without help?
• Who can survive that? Could you?

I do not know if I will live long enough to see justice, but I do not want this to be buried. If you are reading this, please do not let it be covered up. Pass it on to a lawyer, a journalist, an NGO, or someone who can ask the right questions.

I was erased in life. If I don’t survive this, please help to ensure I am not erased after. My story matters. It does not end with me. It’s your story too. This can happen to anyone, so please help to ensure it doesn’t.

The state must rein in its powers and use them lawfully and proportionally.

Don’t let them bury this.

Godspeed.

Final Update: 28 February, 2026

Discovering Multiple Unauthorized Proton Mail Logins

The most alarming update to my surveillance log is that I have just discovered that my Proton Mail session management reveals multiple unauthorized webmail and web account logins spanning weeks, confirming that stalkers have potentially been accessing the emails that I have been sending to the press and to law firms. There are multiple logins from different web accounts (different from mine) in my encrypted Proton Mail account, indicating that my Proton Mail account is being actively accessed rather than a single failed breach attempt.

There is evidence in my Proton Mail account of over five different web accounts logging in at different points to my account since I have been in Orkney. This indicates that there has possibly been a team of people rotating access to my emails via the library. This is where I have been spending my days sending emails to human rights lawyers seeking help and sending tips to press outlets about what I am experiencing.

This is the most intrusive aspect of this surveillance operation. It actively violates data protection laws and The Computer Misuse Act, not just human rights laws. The entry point into my realisation was after I took my overdose on 18 February; I asked the nurse at Balfour Hospital why the police broke in so quickly after I had taken the overdose. The nurse innocently told me, ‘They saw your emails.’ This is what has caused me to scan my Proton Mail account for alien logins.

Due to the extreme seriousness of ongoing threats documented above (multiple unauthorized Proton Mail sessions confirming state-level email surveillance), this serves as my final blog post and evidence update for now. All server-side logs are preserved with Proton, which anyone can subpoena directly.

Reform Needed

I can only end by asking how on earth a patient who was simply asking for help and accountability online has ended up being hounded in this intrusive way and having her privacy stripped away from her this significantly. I hope that my disclosures serve as a vital catalyst for urgent reform regarding the privacy of citizens, data protection and the reigning in of surveillance police powers.

Thank you.
