Save the Children apologises over former boss's 'inappropriate behaviour'

Save the Children has apologised to women employees who complained of inappropriate behaviour by the charity's former chief executive, admitting their claims were not properly dealt with at the time.

In a statement, the charity said Justin Forsyth - who has since gone on to become deputy executive director of Unicef in New York - was twice subject to investigation after concerns were raised about his conduct in 2011 and again in 2015 involving in all three women.
