Lucy Faithfull Foundation
We are a child protection charity working to stop child sexual abuse before it happens. Our main area of work is with people who pose a risk to children to divert them from causing harm. We also support individuals and families who have been affected by abuse and we help professionals who work with families to create safer environments for children. We’re here for everyone who needs us. We provide training and consultation services on all aspects of child protection, risk management, sexual offending and child sexual abuse and exploitation prevention. We run Stop It Now, which supports people who are either worried about their own sexual thoughts or behaviour towards children, or worried about another adult or young person. Our anonymous helpline and online self-help give practical advice and information to help keep children safe. We run Shore, which a provides a safe space for teenagers worried about their own or a friend’s sexual behaviour. Registered charity no. 1013025.
