CONFIDENTIALITY Our 'duty of confidentiality' is, and always has been, to our clients. We never have, nor ever will, release your details to a third party. That said, the general public have a legitimate expectation .. and from time to time they reasonably expect us, as an anti-bullying organisation, to 'speak out' to further our cause in the interests of best practice and to campaign for a stress-free, bully-free, world. This is what we do. This does not mean to say that The National Bullying Helpline ever will, or ever has, breached client confidentiality. Our Mission is to continue to work towards eradicating anti-social behaviour in all corners of our society and occasionally that involves campaigning, speaking out and raising awareness. NO.10 & FEBRUARY 2010 Thank you for your loyalty Press Release: http://www.swindonlink.com/news/national-bullying-hotline-founder-exonerated We would like to say a BIG THANK YOU to all those who have written to us, emailed us and/or called us since 22nd February 2010 voicing support. We are overwhelmed by the 500+ emails and letters received. The Information Commissioner (ICO) exonerated the COE of The National Bullying Helpline of breach of confidentiality in February 2010. Simply, no one was named, no personal details were disclosed and no one was placed at risk. The purpose of our media intervention in 2010 was to point out the importance of 'due process' as set out in the ACAS Code of Practice and to encourage employers to investigate matters thoroughly rather than make assumptions or (worse) make a public statement of denial. Employees, UK wide, should feel able to raise contentious matters in the workplace without fear of repercussion. The bullying that was 'catagorically denied' in central government by political officials in February 2010 was subsequently admitted by various political memoirists. The truth came out eventually - and we were right to speak out! Whatever the rights or wrongs of what happened in 2010, bullying has not gone away. Bullying will never go away. So, we will continue to tackle anti-social behaviour and help those who struggle with bullying issues. We will not be bullied ourselves. The public still need our support - of that there is absolutely no doubt. We intend to continue to provide support to all those who need it insofar as we are able to with limited funds and resources. If you are struggling with a bullying, harassment, cyberbullying, cyber crime or anti-social behaviour issue today, we hope this Helpsite will enable you to identify solutions and remedies along with practical, affordable, professional support. Thank you. We are no longer a Charity. However, this website remains 'your' National Bullying Helpline. In an ideal world there would be no need for an anti-bullying helpline. CLOSURE AS A CHARITY TRUSTEE CLOSING STATEMENT : January 2011 Trustees of The National Bullying Helpline Charity decided with regret at a meeting held on January 4, 2011, to discontinue the (free) helpline service with immediate effect and take steps to close the Charity down. The National Bullying Helpline is no longer a Charity. The Charity, founded in 2007, provided an invaluable free service to the public. In 2010 calls to the Charity trebled but the decision to close comes because of a lack of funding and the resignation of our founder and Chief Executive. Increased workload and trying to secure funding for the Charity had taken its toll on the CEO’s health over the last year. The Charity Commission is being informed. Volunteers at the offices in Swindon have been told that the helpline will no longer operate. A statement from the Trustees said: “This last year, calls to our helpline have trebled and we have had to take on additional Volunteers and resources to meet demand. Without doubt, this demonstrates that a free anti-bullying helpline is a much needed and much valued life-line for the general public – adults and children alike. “We believe our Charity was unique. We believe there is no other UK bullying helpline today, quite like The National Bullying Helpline, providing assistance to both adults and children who are affected by anti social behaviour in the community, the home, the workplace and/or the playground. "Undoubtedly, the closure of our Charity will be a great loss to the public. “May we thank our founders, our Ambassador, our dedicated team of Trustees, Volunteers, our Sponsors and all Associates for their invaluable input over recent years, to this worthy cause.” The National Bullying Helpline website will remain in place as a resource for those who want information and guidance for combating bullying as it contains practical tools and downloadable material.
