The purpose of this poster is to aid a conversation about the importance of mealtime and family time. Recognising that families are diverse and not every family will be able to sit together at mealtimes for a variety of reasons but maybe one day a week may be possible.

NSPCC Puzzle

This puzzle is based on a mural designed by a group of post 16 students from Mill Ford school. The group discussed the subject of consent in school, and wanted to create something bright and colourful to remind them of these discussions.

The original is painted in one of the school classrooms. This consent puzzle can be used with all children and is a great conversation started on the subject of consent. The puzzle itself can be printed and cut out with helpful instructions on how to use included.

Puzzle Instructions

Breaking the Taboo

community leaders in Ernesettle formed a group “Breaking the Taboo” The spoke about how they could “break the taboo” on talking about child sexual abuse and now with the support of National Lottery funding, we have 4 signs in prominent areas in Ernesettle and 2 in Central Park.

The signs help as conversation starters and have a QR code which links to support services. They have been well received by the communities involved. Maybe you could think about how you could support “Breaking the Taboo” in your community. You could use this sign as a starting point.
