CORE-INFO

A series of leaflets on aspects of physical child abuse

These leaflets are based on the work of the Welsh Child Protection Systematic Review group, which is engaged in a rolling programme of systematic reviews of published research literature on aspects of physical child abuse. This is a collaborative project between the Department of Child Health at Cardiff University and the NSPCC.

CORE-INFO leaflets make the key findings of the systematic reviews and implications for practice accessible to anyone working with children or young people.
