About us

Lucy Faithfull Foundation is a UK-wide charity that exists to prevent child sexual abuse and exploitation.

We’re here for everyone who needs us.

We protect children by working with people who pose a risk and diverting them from causing harm. We support individuals and families who have been affected by abuse. And we help professionals who work with families to create safer environments for children.

We use data and insight, alongside decades of experience, to develop innovative strategies and interventions to make prevention a reality.

We engage with policy and decision makers to advocate for a public health approach to child sexual abuse.

We bring our understanding and knowledge of what keeps children safe to the widest possible audience.
