Affected by Kids Company closure?
07 August 2015
Following the sudden closure of Kids Company we want to let you know where you can find other services around your area.
If you want to talk to anyone confidentially about anything please ring ChildLine on 0800 11 11 or you can click here. No problem is too big or too small.
The Children’s Commissioner’s advice line provides advice on rights and services to children and young people who are feeling unsafe or worried and need guidance on where to go for help. If you call they will listen and link you up with services in your area. Their number is 0800 528 0731.
