It is with a heavy heart that we write this message to you.
Together for Childhood has been a pivotal project over the last 8 years, focused on preventing child sexual abuse. We have successfully created asset-based community projects within the Ernesettle area and have developed many key relationships with local partners, professionals, community leaders, community members, Children, young people, parents and carers. The support has been phenomenal! We are deeply saddened to end our project earlier than planned, however we would like the legacy to continue, and we know that through the community of Ernesettle and across the city our messaging will resonate for years to come. We would like to thank all the Ernesettle community for their patience, acceptance and support in the prevention of child sexual abuse.
We would like to thank all the organisations, groups, volunteers and individuals who have worked alongside us and have been an integral part of the Together for Childhood Team.
We recently moved our project work into the Honicknowle and Stonehouse areas, and though our work has been cut short, you have made a difference and this has had a huge impact.
The partnership and collaboration have been amazing, and we would like to wish each and every one of you all the best for the future.
This page will close on the 4th December. If you would like to get any further information about the resources and contacts, please email lyndsey.austin@nspcc.org.uk before that date and I will be happy to help in any way I can.
The NSPCC Helpline and Childline will remain a source of information for you to access.
Please look out for posts over the next two weeks, signposting some of the links for further support.
We are sure our paths will cross in one way or another. Thank you from all of the Plymouth Together for Childhood Team, it has been an absolute pleasure to meet and work with all of you.
