The NSPCC works with children, young people and families who need help across the UK. Its services aim to protect children today, prevent abuse tomorrow and support wider efforts to make child cruelty a thing of the past. To improve understanding of best safeguarding practice, the NSPCC publishes evaluations of its services and interventions, and undertakes research and literature reviews. These are published on the NSPCC website to contribute to the evidence on what works to protect children and families.

It is important that those who have regular contact with children and families, such as children's centre workers, health visitors, family support workers and teachers, feel confident in their ability to recognise where the needs of a child are not being met and share this effectively with other professionals and the family.
