Coram’s Child Law Advice Service, which helps children and young people find out about their rights, has launched a website called www.lawstuff.org.uk. Funded by The Queen’s Trust, the website provides accessible and easy-to-understand information about children’s rights in online safety, police and law, children’s services, education, rights of non-UK citizens, family, abuse and bullying, general rights, and sex, health and drugs. Young people who need more information can go to www.childlawadvice.org.uk. Gemma Smith, manager of the Child Law Advice Service, said knowing their rights let children “know that they are valued whilst also helping them to respect the rights of others”.
