The National Association for People Abused in Childhood (NAPAC) is a registered charity which provides support and information for people abused in childhood. The NAPAC Support Team are trained volunteers who will assist callers in any way they can. NAPAC does not offer counselling or on-going support but they are there to listen, validate and do whatever is most helpful to the caller, whether that be a listening ear or searching the database to give the most relevant information on any local sources of help.

Those survivors behind this web site ran a successful campaign to overturn the last amendment to the Limitation Act in 1980. Previous to 30th January 2008, all victims of deliberate and indecent assault had no course of justice if they brought the case later than 6 years after the assault(s). Today, these cases are no longer statute barred and will be considered on their own merits. The author is grateful to a friend and fellow survivor from Justice4survivors for their help and support with ‘Survivors’ Stories’.
