• Anything which is happening to you which is hurtful; emotionally or physically.
• It could mean bullying, sexual abuse, physical attack, being forced to do something you don’t want to.
• It could be at home, at the training centre, in the workplace, with friends, online, in the street; anywhere.
• You can share personal information with any of the UKTD staff here, but:
• If the staff member feels that what you tell them puts you or any other young person at risk of harm
• They will have to pass it on to the designated person who may have to take it further to support you or others.
• They will only tell those who need to know
