Advice for adults and professionals

We can't end cruelty to children by ourselves. So our advice services for adults are here to support anyone – parents, professionals, and members of the general public – to protect children.

When you’re worried about a child

If you’re worried about a child, you can speak to the NSPCC Helpline on 0808 800 5000 or email us at help@nspcc.org.uk. The service is here 24 hours a day to help you whenever you need to talk about your concerns or worries.
