Our work with the Welsh Language Commissioner
Our Welsh Offer demonstrates our commitment to the Welsh language, helping us achieve greater impact and inspiring others to join us in our fight for every childhood.
We're very proud that we've been working with the Welsh Language Commissioner to develop our Cynnig Cymraeg/Welsh Offer, and are honoured to have received accreditation.
How we're supporting Welsh speakers
Our key information and campaign materials for audiences in Wales are available in Welsh and English, including our Talk PANTS campaign, our brain-building Look Say Sing Play tips and our Take 5 parenting resources.
Childline
- Welsh-speaking counsellors can speak to children in Welsh through our Childline service. We advertise when the Welsh language service is available on the Childline website and its content is promoted bilingually.
- Children and young people can ask to speak to a Welsh-speaking counsellor. If no Welsh-speaking counsellors are available at the time, they can find out when a Welsh-speaking counsellor will be available.
- Children and young people can read our most popular information on the Childline website in Welsh.
NSPCC Helpline
- Emails can be sent in Welsh to help@nspcc.org.uk and we'll respond in Welsh.

Our popular Protecting children in entertainment training for chaperones e-course is available in Welsh and Welsh language materials are available to those attending our scheduled training courses in Wales.
Our Welsh-speaking staff are essential in providing Welsh language services - look for the Iaith Gwaith email signature and merchandise to identify our Welsh-speaking staff.
All staff members with public-facing roles will be supported to learn ‘courtesy level’ Welsh, so why not start your conversation with us in Welsh?
We're always looking at ways to recruit more Welsh-speaking volunteers, so our opportunities are advertised bilingually.
Our volunteers have access to Welsh language resources and can connect with other Welsh-speaking volunteers through our Volunteer Hub.
We also support our volunteers who wish to learn Welsh through the Work Welsh programme.
