The NSPCC has produced two useful guides on what to consider for when your child is old enough to be out on their own or left home alone.
Safe places
Safe Places is part of a national scheme involving local premises such as libraries, grocery stores and community centres signing up to be a place where individuals who feel scared, upset or angry can go. From here, a member of staff can help you get in touch with someone you know who can help, such as a support worker. All of these areas will have the Safe Places logo stuck onto their main window or door.
