From time to time life can feel a bit tricky. The good news is that there are people who can help you. Read on to find out more about the strategies that you can use to get the support that you need. 

If you have a concern about your health and wellbeing - why not take a look at the School Nursing service's information page.

One of the best things that you can do is to talk to a trusted adult. This could be a grown up, over the age of 18, at home or a teacher at school. 

Feeling Unsafe?

If an adult is making you feel unsafe or scared at home or at school - please talk to a safe adult and you will be helped. If you don't have a trusted adult that you feel that you can talk to call Childline on 0800 1111. Within school you can find more information about keeping safe and who to talk to on our pupil notice board.

Remember:

• You have the right to say NO if someone is hurting or touching you.
• You have the right to be safe online and to keep others safe - never give out your personal details (your name, address, how old you are, where you live or go to school) online to strangers.
• Remember that your private areas are private.
• Remember that there is a difference between safe and unsafe secrets.
• Always talk to a safe adult if you are confused, worried or upset about something. 

What else can I do?

If you ever feel afraid or need someone to talk to, remember that you can phone Childline completely free of charge on 0800 1111 anytime, day or night. The number wont show up on any phone bills! Or, log onto the Childline website at www.childline.org.uk
