Hello
Today is the start of Anti-Bullying Week. Whether you are being bullied or caring for someone who is being bullied, it’s important to know that you’re not alone, and there is support available.
Often it takes more than one person to end the bullying, so don’t think you have to go through all this on your own.
This is the main page about bullying on Mencap's website mencap.org.uk/advice-and-su...
You can also find out about:

Richard also made a great video last year about how the R-word makes him feel.
