National Case Review Collection

The NSPCC national case review repository launched in November 2013 and has developed into the National Case Review Collection, the most comprehensive collection of case reviews in the UK. It provides a single place to access and share learning at a local, regional and national level.

The repository has over 2,000 case reviews from across the UK dating back to 1945, and thematic analysis reports from all four nations.

NSPCC Neglect

Neglect is the ongoing failure to meet a child's basic needs and the most common form of child abuse. A child might be left hungry or dirty, or without proper clothing, shelter, supervision or health care. This can put children and young people in danger. And it can also have long term effects on their physical and mental wellbeing.
