Childline helps anyone under 19 in the UK with any issue they are going through. Whether it is something big or small, their trained counsellors are available to talk about anything.

Childline is a safe place to talk. Calls are not recorded and their number will not show up on any phone bills. Counsellors write some notes about what is discussed. They also keep notes for 1-2-1 counsellor chats and emails and save copies of what has been said in a chat or email. These notes stay safe at Childline. They keep notes to help understand what one is going through and support them if they contact Childline again. It can also make it easier for them to get help if they are in danger.
