Each day brings new challenges for #indirectvictims, whether it be loss of childcare, loss of finances, loss of the life they once knew. Help is out there with some wonderful people and agencies and hopefully we can reduce the stigma and trauma associated with online offending.

Continuing to spread awareness of such a traumatic event. We are here to support and signpost those affected.

More and more people are sitting up and taking notice. The families feedback is so positive and thankful that such support and signposting is available to them during such a traumatic event.
