We’ve brought together Leaders from more than 30 agencies and organisations to call on the Prime Minister and the Home Secretary to turn the findings and recommendations of the Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) into a national mission to prevent child sexual abuse.
The Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse (IICSA) published its final report with 20 key recommendations on October 20. And now we need political leadership and long-term reform to laws and policies, for all organisations to strengthen safeguarding in their work and for victims and survivors to be at the heart of implementing change.
We're leading a wide-ranging group, that includes children’s charities, the Football Association, Girl Guiding UK, The Internet Watch Foundation, the Royal Council of Paediatrics and Child Health and Deputy Chief Constable Ian Critchley – NPCC Lead for Child Abuse, Protection and Investigation, to campaign for change to protect children.
Along with leaders of charities, religious groups, doctors and law enforcement, we've sent a letter to Downing Street calling for a national mission to prevent child sexual abuse, with a need for both immediate action and long-term reform.
