Closed petition Tougher sentencing for child abusers. And more protection should be given, to abused children in the UK

Closed on 1 August 2014

This e-petition is to bring to light, that more should be done to prevent abuse on children in the UK. Tougher sentences should be given to all convicted child abusers (sexual, physical, mental, and emotional abuse, including neglect) The government needs to provide more support, and protection for children who are at risk of, or currently living in an abusive environment. Create new jobs in the councils, to go and visit abused children, or children who are possibly at risk of being abused, in their own homes. More support officers, and social workers to be trained to support children, and their families etc. Try and get the Government to fund more money, to the charities such as NSPCC & Barnardo's
