We are a UK-wide network of individuals, organisations and elected representatives working together to reduce child abuse, neglect and other adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) by at least 70% by the year 2030. We call this goal '70/30'.
Our radical but achievable goal is necessary because 1 in 5 children will suffer ACEs during their lifetime. The 70/30 goal was created after we received support from our partners and expert advisers who agreed that 70/30 is achievable if the right policies and actions are taken by decision makers and those holding the purse strings.
We have developed specific action plans to achieve 70/30.
Our 176 ambassadors across the UK are campaigning for a shift to prevention in their communities. Below we introduce a few who explain why they are passionate about the 70/30 campaign, and here is some of what they do:
