• Together we can tackle child abuse
  The government has launched a campaign called 'Together we can tackle child abuse'. The resources, aimed at everyone in the community include four very short videos explaining physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, neglect and online abuse. The simple mnemonic, ABC, is used to remind people that they should look out for changes in appearance, behaviour or communication. The webpage has a search engine to find out where to report abuse.
