17th to 21st NOVEMBER 2008: NATIONAL BAN BULLYING WEEK

Our most important message for 2008 was that we are no longer just a workplace bullying helpline. For a number of years we have received calls from parents, children and individuals bullied in the community. We provide FREE practical and timely support to those who need it. So, we decided to do something about it. We diversified.

The National Bullying Helpline is the first, national, Charity which addresses bullying in both the playground and the workplace. From November 2008 The National Bullying Helpline became, offically, a ‘one stop' helpline. Whether you are being bullied at school, in the community or in the workplace we can help.

NOVEMBER 2008: POSTER COMPETITION

Thomson's Local sponsored a Post Competition for schools, which took place across Hampshire, Wiltshire and Somerset. More details to follow.

OUR MESSAGE FOR NOVEMBER 2008 WAS:“ITS COOL TO CRI”
CONFRONT, RECORD and INFORM

  1. CONFRONT – Confront the bully. Tell the bully to STOP. Tell the bully that you are upset about they way they have behaved.
  2. RECORD – Record the things that upset you in a diary. Keep a record of all the small things that upset you. If you don't want to talk to someone, write a story about what is happening in your life and hand it to your teacher or to a trusted friend.
  3. INFORM – Inform an adult or your mum or dad. Tell an adult that you are being bullied. Tell a teacher. Tell your friends. Tell someone that you are upset and tell them why.

There is something else you can do if you are being bullied.

You can call The National Bullying Helpline on 0845 22 55 787. 

Remember. 
There is no place for bullies in our Society today.
Thank you .

The Charity Launch - House of Commons 25 April 2007

On 25 April 2007 more than 120 Employers and Business Representatives gathered at the House of Commons for the launch of the National Bullying Helpline. Hosted by Anne Snelgrove MP for Swindon South, the speakers included Professor Gary Cooper Patron, Gavin Jones Chief Executive Swindon Borough Council, and Co-Founder of the National Bullying Helpline Christine Pratt C.F. CIPD.

“It was very interesting as many of the attendees agreed they had either experienced or at least observed bullying in the workplace at some time in their career” said David Pratt.

The publicity surrounding the event attracted more than 200 enquiries to the website and more than 300 calls to the Helpline.  “This demonstrates the very clear need for a Helpline” said Christine  “and how we must now attract sponsorship to enable us to deal with these enquiries in a timely manner”.
