Childline provides round-the-clock, 24 hours, 365 days a year support to the Royal Gibraltar Police and HM Customs, ensuring that an Appropriate Adult is readily available for every child under 18 in Gibraltar.
We’ve embraced a preventative approach centred on education and awareness. As part of this, we deliver the Resilient Minds program in schools, working directly with young people to help them build emotional resilience and coping skills.
Additionally, we collaborate directly with parents, caregivers, local schools, and youth organisations to raise awareness about the challenges faced by children and young people. By fostering understanding and support within the community, we aim to create a safer and more supportive environment for every child.
At Childline, we understand the challenges and joys of parenthood. That’s why we offer Family Support sessions, including DART (Domestic Abuse Recovery Together) and Positive Parenting programs. These sessions are designed to support you on your parenting journey, helping you foster a resilient bond with your child while connecting with a supportive community of fellow mums and dads. The benefits of exchanging ideas and experiences with other parents can last a lifetime.
