What to do if concerned

Header image

If you are concerned about a child, speak to someone. This might be a health visitor, nursery staff, teacher, GP, social worker, police officer or children’s reporter.

Make sure you:

  • act promptly
  • note your concerns
  • give as much information as you know about the child and family
