COVID-19 Update

It can be difficult to cope when there’s so much changing around us. You might be worried about schools closing, friends or relatives getting ill or what'll happen in the future. Like lots of organisations in the UK, Childline is being affected by the government's advice about keeping people safe. Changes to the service mean you'll only be able to speak to a counsellor online or on the phone between 9am and midnight. You can also send a message from your locker any time, but we won’t be able to read this straight away. Our website will still be available 24 hours a day.
