WORDS MATTER 

Words Matter is a charity on a mission to improve children's mental and physical health and development by helping end verbal abuse of children by the adults around them. Working in partnership with experts, decision makers, non-profit and other organisations, we focus on three areas. These are: research, raising awareness through information and campaigns, and collaboration to find solutions.
