Hidden children, hidden carers. Now a @JohnLewisRetail Christmas advert. We have travelled such a long way to visibility shared so sensitively. JL doing so much practically for CEP too. One demonstration of how we tackle stigma ❤️

[Clare Pedley @clr_pd]

When a call 'to order pizza' becomes an urgent plea for help...📞

We received a 999 call – but when it was answered, the woman on the line said she would like to order a pizza.

Our call handler immediately asked the woman if she was in trouble, to which she confirmed “yes”.

[Clare Pedley @clr_pd]

It’s so important that we do more to keep people safe online in this fast growing world of social media #OnlineSafetyBill https://t.co/Rg8GxjN7sB
