Joint Statement: Five ways to help children and young people stay safe during the coronavirus lockdown

A joint statement has been issued today between Welsh Government, NSPCC, Children in Wales and the Youth Work Board affirming that we must all take responsibility for keeping our children safe. Sean O'Neill, Policy Director at Children in Wales, said:

"Our message is clear. If you need help, seek help. If you know someone who needs help, or are concerned about someone, then seek help today. So many incredible services have responded with energy and determination to help ensure that children remain safe from harm at this crucial time. They are there, ready and willing to provide advice, care, comfort and support. We must all be extra vigilant and aim to make sure that no child suffers under this pandemic."
