How Safe Are Our Children?

Yesterday saw the publication of How Safe Are Our Children?, a new report from the NSPCC which compiles child protection data across the UK. Many different areas of child safety are tackled, with the key message being that "in some ways today's children are safer from abuse and neglect than those of previous generations but worrying levels of abuse still remain."

You can read the full report online by clicking here. In addition, 19 different indicators were used to compile the report, and you can get more detail on each of them from this page. For a full list of all previous posts on this site relating to child protection / safeguarding, click here.
