Services in your area

Cymru/Wales

"In Wales and across the UK, we're transforming our services for children, young people and their families. A lot has happened over the past year. We have announced where our new service centres will be located in Wales, and decided which programmes will be delivered from these centres.

"In some cases, we have already started to deliver innovative programmes, which focus on safeguarding and protecting children from abuse. I look forward to continuing to develop these to bring about lasting change for vulnerable children across Wales."

Des Mannion, head of NSPCC services for children and families in Cymru/Wales.

About our work in Wales

We have service centres in Cardiff, Prestatyn and Swansea, which provide direct services to children and families across Wales. The centres are designed to be places where children can feel safe and supported and better able to overcome the trauma they have experienced.

The work we do in our service centres concentrates on the most important issues affecting children and groups of children who are most at risk. Read more about our overall approach to what we do, or contact your local team for more information.
