What is child abuse?

Child abuse can take many forms; professionals often categorise abuse as either emotional, physical, sexual or neglect.  Only some types of abuse have signs you can see.

If you think a child is being harmed in some way and need to talk to someone about it, or if you

would like some information about child protection in Somerset, please contact your local Children's Social Care Team.
