Child Abuse Services
Childline
Childline is a free, private and confidential service where you can talk about anything troubling you. If you're being bullied, feeling worried or unsafe, Childline can help. They understand that bullying can happen anywhere and be about anything, so they offer advice about different types of bullying whether you're being bullied online, at school, or in friendship or family groups.
Childline's counsellors are trained staff and volunteers from all different ages and backgrounds. What they all have in common is that they want to help young people.

Victims service (children and young people)
The Greater Manchester victims service website offers advice for victims and survivors of crime including sexual abuse, and their families.
Sexual abuse includes unwanted sexual comments, touching, being made to have sex when you don’t want to, or being forced to look at sexual pictures or videos. Sometimes your abuser may be a family member or someone you thought was a friend.
No matter what the circumstances, or what has happened, you are not to blame and you can get support regardless of whether or not you have reported a crime to the police.
