Midwives, health visitors & other professionals provide support that can make a real difference for parents. Worryingly, our research shows that service doors are often closed, hard to reach, or out of touch with the needs of families impacted by poverty: nurseryworld.co.uk/content/news/e…

New @NSPCC data shows that online grooming crimes have reached record levels across the UK. One year after the Online Safety Act became law, we are still waiting for tech companies to make their platforms safe for children: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Snapchat most-used app for online grooming, says NSPCC

The children's charity says the police data shows people are "still waiting" for social media to be made safe,


"It is appalling that these horrific chatbots were able to be created and shows a clear failure by Character.ai to have basic moderation in place on its service." @NSPCC telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/…

Babies, children and young people must be at the heart of policy making. At our #ChildrenAtTheTable event at the Labour Party Conference, young people shared their stories, needs and priorities with senior government ministers: watch to find out what happened 👇

🚨 The UK’s leading children’s charity warns today that an urgent strategy is needed to tackle what it calls the “national crisis” of neglect. The @NSPCC tells @Channel4News that neglect in children has become “normalised”, with poverty and the cost of living driving more cases


Available resources and early help services to support families are “at an all-time low” and “economic pressures on families are at an all-time high”. “This combination is proving disastrous for children and families” @AnnaEdmundson @NSPCC independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

Disturbingly, counsellors at ⁦@NSPCC#Childline are receiving an increasing number of calls from young people being blackmailed over faked indecent images. #Sextortion is a horrific crime but we’re helping teenagers fight back 👇🏼 theguardian.com/uk-news/articl…


The @NSPCC is calling on the Government to invest its spending in providing greater longer-term support services so that more children can reunite and stay with their families when it is considered safe: inews.co.uk/news/support-f…


"The Government must invest in joined-up early years services in local communities so that every family knows where they can go to for help & so that trained professionals can refer those experiencing domestic abuse to the right support services before problems escalate." @NSPCC

Let’s think about the children in these images. Callously exploited and psychologically destroyed. They are not images. They are humans who will live with this forever and all for the twisted pleasure of the disgusting men who trade and swap this misery. And don’t call it child…

“There is a concerning discrepancy between the number of UK child abuse image crimes taking place on Apple’s services and the almost negligible number of global reports of abuse content they make to authorities" - @RichCCollard of the @NSPCC theguardian.com/technology/art…
