Anti-bullying Support Groups and Sites
Below is a list of useful support groups and sites for young people
Childline
Whether you're feeling stressed, anxious, lonely or down, no matter what it relates to -
ChildLine is a private and confidential service, meaning that what you say stays between you and ChildLine.
Think U Know
The Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre's website provide the latest information on the sites you like to visit, mobiles and new technology. Find out what's good, what's not and what you can do about it. If you look after young people there's an area for you too – with resources you can use in the classroom, at home or just to get with it. Most importantly, there's also a place which anyone can use to report if they feel uncomfortable or worried about someone they are chatting to online.
Get Connected
Get Connected is the UK's free, confidential helpline for young people under 25 who need help and don't know where to turn. tTe service is available 365 days a year and young people can contact it by phone, webchat, email, text message or use the online directory, WebHelp 24/7.
When a young person gets in touch, one of 100 trained Helpline Volunteers helps them explore their issues. They offer emotional support and can let them know about appropriate sources of further specialist help from a database of 10,000 trusted organisations.
Last year, each of the Helpline Volunteers directly helped around 200 children and young people who needed help with a wide range of issues including homelessness, self harm, bullying and drugs.
