At the heart of ChildLine's vital work lies sincere communication with children. Communication is our business and so there has always been a natural synergy between our two organisations. ChildLine provides an indispensable service to children and young people in need. Hear for yourself from ChildLine callers:

"I used to believe I had a normal family. I thought it was normal not to be spoken to,  just shouted at.  I thought it was normal to be scared to go home, to be bashed around, and worst of all, to be hated.
I was afraid to tell you, but now I have, I'm glad I did. I needed to share it. Tell others to speak out as soon as they can"

"I feel better just having talked to you. I don't feel so alone now. Thank you for listening to me. It seemed disloyal to my parents to talk to anyone I knew. You helped me to work out what I had to do."
