The test of true friendship when the going gets tough -so if your mate's in crisis, make sure you're her shoulder to cry on.
What if your friend's thinking of running away?
Take what she's saying seriously – she’s been brave to confide in you. Find out as much as possible about the situation she’s running from, and reassure her there are other solutions. And tell an adult you trust, even if she’s sworn you to secrecy – you might save her from risky choices and sleeping rough.
Help! Call ChildLine (0800 1111 - open 24 hours) for support and advice. If she’s already run away, the Message Home Helpline (0800 700740 - open 24 hours) will pass on messages to her loved ones and put her in touch with a young person's advice centre. |
