Fearless Christmas
Fearless Christmas
Presents, food, trees, twinkly fairy lights!
We hope that whatever your beliefs and traditions, whether you choose to celebrate or not, that you enjoy your time off school and have good times with family and friends.
Christmas isn’t always a fun time though.
Money can be tight, pressures can be high and there can be family arguments and stress.
Children and young people can also be more at risk from harm and neglect because they don’t have the safety of school and sometimes youth clubs and activities can be off for the holidays.
It can also leave you wondering who you should tell if you know information about crime because lots of businesses, charities and services are often closed over Christmas or have reduced hours.
At Fearless, we’re ALWAYS open – 24 hours, every day of the year.
Whether you contact us at 9am on Christmas Day or midnight on Hogmanay – there will ALWAYS be a trained member of staff waiting to take your information and pass it on to police 100% anonymously.
If you’re worried about someone hurting your friend, a gang selling drugs, someone carrying a weapon – whatever the crime, you can tell our charity HERE
What makes our charity special is that when you click on our reporting page, we can’t track your IP address or any contact details.
By telling us what you know, it’ll be off your chest and you’ll know you’ve did your bit but nobody will ever know the information came from you – not even the Police.
