Victims of Abuse

Our fab volunteers are still putting this page together, however we have made a start...

What is child abuse?

Child abuse is when a child is intentionally harmed by an adult or another child – it can be over a period of time but can also be a one-off action. It can be physical, sexual or emotional and it can happen in person or online. It can also be a lack of love, care and attention – this is neglect.

It’s never too late to help a child. Child abuse and its effects are preventable. We can work together to stop abuse from happening and support children who have been abused.
