Thanks to everyone for joining today to hear from our speakers and support our call to #EndPhysicalPunishment ! #EqualProtection

This is such an important report from @RCPCH, and one which we fully support.

It's time to #EndPhysicalPunishment – every child should have #EqualProtection from assault.

Children who experience physical punishment are…

2.6x more likely to experience mental health problems

2.3x more likely to experience serious physical assault and abuse.

#EndPhysicalPunishment #EqualProtection

Today we've published a new report setting out the health, education and legal case to remove the ‘reasonable punishment’ defence in England and Northern Ireland.

It's time to give every child #EqualProtection from assault and #EndPhysicalPunishment .
