Anti-Bullying Alliance

About ABA

Help us stop bullying for good

1 in 4 children are bullied frequently.

In every classroom, almost every day, a child suffers in silence. The effects of bullying don't end at the school gate or on a smart phone. Children who are bullied are more likely to struggle with their mental health, leave school with no qualifications, and face challenges in forming stable relationships later in life.

We believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and included.

The Anti-Bullying Alliance is a coalition of organisations and individuals united against bullying. We work with schools, professionals, parents, and policymakers to build a world where no child lives in fear of being bullied.

We’re proud to be part of the National Children’s Bureau, a charity working to ensure all children grow up safe, secure, and supported.

With your help, we’ve already made a huge difference:

• Reached over 7 million young people through Anti-Bullying Week and Odd Socks Day
• Trained 20,000+ educators and professionals on how to tackle bullying effectively
• Supported hundreds of parents and carers to help protect their children

But we can’t stop now.

Your support can help us:

• Equip more teachers and professionals to recognise and challenge bullying
• Create new resources for parents and carers
• Influence government policy so the UK leads the way in preventing bullying
• Run national campaigns like Anti-Bullying Week and Odd Socks Day, reaching schools, youth settings and communities across the country

Get involved

This year, Anti-Bullying Week takes place from 10–14 November. It’s the perfect time to fundraise — whether by organising a school Odd Socks Day, holding a sponsored challenge, or dressing up as your favourite hero for the day. Every pound you raise helps protect more children.

But the fight against bullying isn’t just one week a year — we need support all year round to keep going.
