A safe space for them to talk, work through their issues, and most of all, know that they are not alone.

Thank you so much.

Teaching children to speak out

Speak out Stay safe is an online assembly and face to face workshop to help schoolchildren recognise the signs of abuse and understand what to do if they experience it.

Because of your ongoing support, we were able to reach almost 900,000 school children across the UK last year, many of whom have since been able to speak out about their abuse.

Answering calls from children and adults

On average, two children a minute contact Childline. Last year, mental and emotional health remained a top concern for most of the children calling.

And as families come under more strain from the cost-ofliving crisis, there is even more for them to worry about. But thanks to supporters like you, we were able to deliver an average of 17,000 Childline counselling sessions a month in 2021/22 – and with your continued support, we’ll deliver even more.

Listening to children whatever their worry

Your support is helping to brighten children’s lives and get them out of the dark places they find themselves in. Without you, so many children would be carrying their worries and burdens around feeling like nobody cared. You’ve helped us bring a little colour back into their lives.

Thank you so much.
