Campaign with us to help end preventable online harm

Lived engagement is at the heart of everything we do. By listening to and empowering the voices of lived experience we demand action to end preventable harm online.

You can campaign privately or publicly, or simply share your experience of online harm to help drive our vision of a safer online world for young people.

We work closely with families and survivors impacted by suicide grooming forums and young people impacted by online harm. You can find out more about our lived experience groups below.

If your experience doesn’t fit these criteria we still want to hear from you and would be happy to discuss how you can help shape our campaigning.

If you feel ready to share your experience and would like to help amplify our work you can do so in confidence below.

If you’re in urgent need of support please visit our Support Page to find signposting to immediate support services.

Families and Survivors to Prevent Online Suicide Harms

Campaigning to close suicide grooming forums once and for all

Families and Survivors to Prevent Online Suicide Harms brings together those affected by suicide grooming forums and the harm they expose vulnerable people to.

The group is calling for a Public Inquiry into the State’s failures to act against a pro-suicide forum responsible for 164 UK deaths and potentially many more.

Anyone who has lost a loved one as a result of online suicide grooming can join the group, as well as survivors and those who have experienced the harm first hand.

You can work with us in whatever way feels right for you, publicly, privately, or anonymously. Our approach is adaptable so you can choose the level of visibility and involvement that feels safe while helping to drive change and prevent further harm from deadly suicide‑grooming forums.
