What does the N.S.P.C.C. do?

• The NSPCC (National Society for the Prevention of
  Cruelty to Children) is the UK's leading charity
  specialising in child protection and the
  prevention of cruelty to children. We have been
  directly involved in protecting children and
  campaigning on their behalf since 1884.
• 180 community-based teams and projects throughout
  England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
• A free, 24-hour Child Protection Helpline that
  provides information, advice and counselling to
  anyone concerned about a child's safety. We also
  run a bilingual Welsh helpline, an Asian helpline
  in five Asian languages, and a text phone service
  for people who are deaf or hard of hearing.

What does the N.S.P.C.C. do?

• Public education campaigns, to increase
  understanding about child abuse and provide
  advice and support on positive parenting.
• Parliamentary campaigning to persuade government,
  Parliament and opinion-formers to put children's
  issues at the top of the political agenda.
• Child protection training and advice for
  organisations involved in the care, protection
  and education of children. For example, local and
  health authorities, sports bodies and young
  people's groups.
• Research into the nature and effects of child
  abuse.
• Information resources on child protection and
  related topics for professionals, the press and
  the general public.
• Fundraising through individual and corporate
  supporters, which provides 85 of the money
  needed to pay for our work to end cruelty to
  children.

What is child abuse?

• Child abuse is when a child suffers harm or even
  death because of physical cruelty, emotional
  cruelty, sexual abuse or neglect by an adult.
  Often the adult is a parent or someone whom the
  child knows and trusts. In many cases, the child
  may be subjected to a combination of different
  kinds of abuse for example, neglect and physical
  abuse.
• Bullying and racism are also forms of child
  abuse. The murder of 10-year old Damilola Taylor
  in Peckham, London, was a tragic example of the
  violence and victimisation which many children
  and young people face.
