The offences are alleged to have taken place at Beechwood children’s home in 1984 against three victims, where Logins was a registered social worker.

The charges follow an investigation led by Operation Daybreak officers into abuse at Beechwood children's home and a number of other children’s homes in Nottingham.

Logins, 56, will appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on 28 April.
