Shy Keenan (also known as Karen Wootton and Karen Claridge) is a British author, child sexual abuse survivor, and founder of Phoenix Survivors, an advocacy group for victims of sexual abuse.[1] Keenan is known for her biography Broken, in which she discusses the long-term and extreme sexual abuse she experienced from her stepfather, Stanley Claridge.[2] In 2014 the book was temporarily withdrawn from distribution by its publisher Hodder & Stoughton.[3] For her work with sexual abuse victims, Keenan received a Women Of The Year award in 2008.[4]
In 2013 Keenan's fourteen-year-old son Ayden Olson was discovered dead within his home, having committed suicide.[5] Keenan has maintained that her son was "bullied to death" and has started a campaign called "Ayden's Law" that requests that the prime minister create a new anti-bullying law.[6][7]
