Together for Childhood overview

Episode 1,   Mar 15, 2019, 04:58 PM

Jon Brown, NSPCC's Head of Development and Impact, talks about Together for Childhood, our initiative to prevent child abuse and neglect.

What if child abuse never happened? What if we all knew who to turn to if we're worried? Together for Childhood is an ambitious ten-year programme that focuses on preventing child abuse. It's an innovative, evidence-informed approach that brings local partners and families together to make communities safer for children.

In this podcast episode, we speak to Jon Brown, the NSPCC's Head of Development and Impact. Jon gives us an overview of Together for Childhood, which is being developed in four sites: Glasgow, Grimsby, Plymouth and Stoke. He talks about the collaborations and co-developments between voluntary, statutory and community sectors, how the programme is helping develop current and new NSPCC services and how it is being funded, evaluated and rolled out.

We'll be visiting the four sites in future episodes to talk more in depth about the work they are doing.
