Kidscape
Kidscape is committed to keeping children safe from abuse. Founded in 1984, Kidscape is the first charity in the UK established specifically to prevent bullying and child sexual abuse. Kidscape believes that protecting children from harm is key.
Kidscape works UK-wide to provide individuals and organisations with practical skills and resources necessary to keep children safe from harm. The Kidscape staff equips vulnerable children with practical non-threatening knowledge and skills in how to keep themselves safe and reduce the likelihood of future harm.
Our work is vital given the frightening statistics that:
- Each year 10-14 youth suicides are directly attributed to bullying (The Home Office)
- Bullied children are 6 times more likely to contemplate suicide than their non-bullied counterparts
- 1 in 12 children are badly bullied to the point that it affects their education, relationships and even their prospects for jobs in later life
- 66% of paedophiles are known to the child
As a registered charity, Kidscape is entirely dependent on grants from public and statutory bodies as well as donations from the general public. Kidscape does not have a fundraising or advertising budget - all our funds go directly towards helping children.
Even the smallest donation can make a difference, and we hope you'll Quote4Us.
