Bullying, cyber-bullying and abuse

Violence at home, face-to-face bullying and bullying using the internet or a mobile is never right, even if the person doing it says they are sorry.

If something is happening to you, a friend or a member of your family and you know it isn’t right, you should ask for help as soon as possible. Talk to someone you trust. Your Connexions personal adviser will help and support you.
