'George's presentation on Early Years Learning had the most profound effect on me - I have rarely come across such a thought-provoking presentation. I was feverishly scribbling away when George said that if we just listened we could have an electronic copy of his presentation. I would be very grateful if you could forward it to me as I wish to share the ideas with my colleagues. I hope it will initiate a debate into where we actually allocate our resources and where we could do more and achieve more.'

What we do

We are dedicated to ending violence in our society by tackling the main root causes - child abuse and neglect.

We do this by:

understanding the root causes of violence and child abuse;
identifying global best practice in addressing those root causes; and
encouraging the adoption of that best practice.

Our ultimate aim is to create a wave of action that will end abuse of all children, everywhere, period.

Our immediate goal is to drive and facilitate a 70% reduction in child abuse and neglect in the UK by the year 2030.

We call this 70/30.
