What we all Need to Know to Protect Our Children
Child sexual abuse happens in secret and most victims tell no one. The abuser is usually a family friend, neighbour, a member of the child's family or someone working with children: he or she may be someone we know and love. This leaflet aims to provide the information we all need to recognise the warning signs of abuse and to build the confidence to do something about it. Plain English Campaign award winner December 2003

Poster text reads:'Childhood should be a time of excitement when children can discover the world and develop at their own pace. Sadly, too many are denied this opportunity because they are sexually abused. In most cases the abuser is someone the child knows and trusts, maybe a parent, baby-sitter or neighbour.

But something can be done - it is the responsibility of all adults to prevent sexual abuse by recognising the signs of abusive behaviour at an early stage and taking action to protect children.

If you suspect that someone you know is sexually abusing a child, or if you are worried about your own thoughts or behaviour towards children ring the Stop it Now! freephone helpline now for confidential advice.'

Poster text reads: Of course children and young people need the opportunity to explore and develop sexually throughout their childhood. But they also need help in setting boundaries when relating to their brothers, sisters, cousins and friends. What appears to be a safe and mutual activity may in fact be harmful.

If you are concerned that a child's behaviour may be inappropriate or abusive, or you are worried about your own thoughts or behaviour towards children, ring the Stop it Now! freephone helpline now for confidential advice.'
