As caring adults we are aware of so much that affects the lives of our children and we want to keep them as safe as possible. If we notice changes that might mean that something is wrong and a child may have been abused, we need to know where we can voice our concerns straight away, rather than feeling that we don’t know what to do. There is help available and steps need not be taken alone. We can talk through your concerns, and help you take any necessary next steps.
If your loved one has been arrested, we can give information about the police investigation and the criminal justice system to help you navigate the process. We understand the significant impact this can have on family and friends, and we are here to provide practical and emotional support to make sense of the situation.
