Family and Friends Forum

Welcome to the Family and Friends Forum

We understand that this can be a difficult and uncertain time, and we want you to know you’re not alone. Our Family and Friends Forum is a safe, supportive space created especially for those who know someone who has offended online. Here, you can connect with others who truly understand what you’re going through, share your experiences, and find support.

This forum is designed to help you make sense of what’s happening and explore how these experiences may be affecting you and your loved ones.

You’re also very welcome to explore our wellbeing pages, which are full of practical tips and ideas to help you look after yourself as you navigate this journey.

Our hope is that this forum becomes a place where you feel less isolated, more informed, and perhaps even a little more hopeful about the future.

It has been a valuable source of support in a world of utter trauma.

It’s difficult to put into words how invaluable this forum is for people who find themselves on this unbearable journey. The community support through shared experience makes the user feel less isolated. Unless you have walked this path it’s impossible to fully understand the enormity of what is faced.

Invaluable empathy from others going through similar emotions.
