NSPCC

If you have any concerns about a child, trust your instincts and contact the NSPCC Helpline. 

You can contact the NSPCC Helpline by calling 0808 800 5000, emailing help@NSPCC.org.uk or completing their abuse online form.

If you think a child is in immediate danger, please call the police on 999 straight away.

Reporting child abuse anonymously

There are lots of reasons why someone might want to remain anonymous when contacting the NSPCC. You don't have to tell them who you are, where you live or share your contact details. If you do choose to share any of these, you can tell them not to share them with other agencies – like the police or social services.

If they think a child could be at risk, they have a duty to share the information that you give with other agencies. But they will respect your wishes about remaining anonymous. If you'd like to find out more about remaining anonymous, please call 0808 800 5000 or email help@NSPCC.org.uk

the NSPCC have dedicated helplines that offer advice on specific issues. These include female genital mutilation (FGM), gangs, radicalisation and whistleblowing.
