How the NSPCC is organised

The NSPCC employs 2,500 people throughout the UK and the Channel Islands.

Our 177 child protection teams and projects work within five Divisions: three in England, one in Wales and one covering Northern Ireland. The help and support they provide to children and families varies according to the needs of the local community.Find out more about the NSPCC's services work.

The child protection teams work is funded by funds raised by a national network of 200 Community Appeals branches and by our central fundraising departments. We also have 17,000 , who are vital to the success of our fundraising effort.

The NSPCC's administrative headquarters are in London at Weston House, 42 Curtain Road, London EC2A 3NH.
