Violence against Children - have we had enough?

This timely and influential conference will explore the causes of violence, consider what we know about the impacts of violence on children and young people, examine good practice around prevention of violence and discuss what more can and should be done.

The voices of children and young people will be represented through calls to ChildLine in Scotland as well as through feedback from our services and we will also hear from parents who use our ParentLine Scotland helpline.

In addition, the conference will hear from experts across Scotland covering topics such as tackling the route causes of violence, the impact on childhood development, bullying, domestic violence and knife crime and gang culture and the implications for practice development and service delivery.
