Together, we can tackle child abuse.

We all have a role to play in protecting children and young people from
child abuse and neglect. All children have a right to be safe.
You don’t have to be absolutely certain about whether a child is being
abused; if you have a feeling that something’s not right, talk to your
local children’s social care team who can look into it.

 If you’re worried about a child, visit [6]gov.uk/reportchildabuse to get
the number for your local authority.
