Dear Forum users,

Since 2002, the Stop It Now helpline, has often been the first and only place where people can talk to someone when they are worried about harmful sexual thoughts or behaviours towards children.

It has been a lifeline for many, whether about their own thoughts, feelings, or behaviours towards children, families, and partners affected by a loved one’s actions, or for professionals seeking expert advice in complex and sensitive situations. Last year alone, we helped 16,000 people to take steps to prevent child sexual abuse before it happens.

Our Stop It Now helpline, chat and email services are anonymous and non-judgmental, helping people feel comfortable to come forward to gain the help they need. Your donations can be anonymous, too.

We need your help to raise £15,000 to keep this lifeline open – you can donate here - https://donate.giveasyoulive.com/campaign/stop-it-now-help

Our friendly fundraising team is full of ideas and ready to support you. Contact us at: supporters@lucyfaithfull.org.uk – we’d love to hear from you!

Donate. Fundraise. Share.

Together, we can protect children. Together, we can prevent child sexual abuse.
