Stop it Now! Wales is a campaign which calls on the public to face the facts and start taking positive action to prevent child sexual abuse in Wales.
Between December 2008 and March of this year, Stop it Now!, managed by the Lucy Faithfull Foundation, ran a survey to determine Welsh attitudes to and knowledge of child sexual abuse. The survey established that not enough is known and that people don’t know what to do if the have concerns about a child.
Stop it Now! runs a free, confidential 0808 1000 900 helpline for all adults who are concerned either about a child or about their own, or another person’s, behaviour towards children. There are also plans to hold training and awareness raising events for parents, grandparents and professionals who work with young people.
