The Lucy Faithfull Foundation is looking for your help
Has a close family member been arrested and convicted for online sexual communication offences?
As part of our media work to deter and stop online offending, we are inviting people with a family member who has been convicted for this type of offence, to tell your story completely anonymously in order to:
- Explain the devastating impact this issue has on family members including wives/partners, parents, and children
- Educate the public about the scale of the online sexual communication offending
- Inform the public and media about the pathways that lead to offending
Why is The Lucy Faithfull Foundation looking for your help?
Most people who are involved in online sexual communication with under 16s will not be thinking of the impact of their behaviour on their family and friends when they are eventually arrested and convicted.
But also, most family members will be completely unaware that this behaviour is happening in their home and, as so many of you will know, will experience feelings of betrayal, loneliness and shock.
By telling your completely anonymous story to the public, you will help them to better understand the problem, take the right steps to prevent it, and highlight the crucial support family members need once they find out what their loved one has done.
Here at The Lucy Faithfull Foundation we do all we can to highlight the impact of the arrest of a loved one on family and friends. One vital way of reaching the public and telling that story is by talking to trusted outlets, and our team has lots of experience of using the media for this purpose.
So, this could be your chance to help spread the word and play your part in preventing future child sexual abuse.
What would working with The Lucy Faithfull Foundation look like?
This would not be a time intensive commitment.
We’re hoping to produce a few written lines from a range of family members to give the broadest sense of the experiences that people go through after their loved one is arrested and convicted for online sexual communication offences.
To be absolutely clear, your anonymity is our top priority and we will ensure at every stage that your identity is protected.
We will also ensure you are given the final sign-off before any words that you have provided go into the public domain.
If you would like to be involved, or if you are interested but would like to find out more, please email forum@lucyfaithfull.org.uk with the subject line ‘’Telling my story’’ and a member of our team will be in touch shortly.
All the best,
The Lucy Faithfull Foundation
