We are the UK's first children's charity to devise anti-bullying strategies for young people by young people. We strongly believe that young people have the ability to shape society - a society in which bullying is unacceptable.

3. Why do Chris & Zac find this interesting? Zac & Chris find this interesting, because being at school, is not a walk in the park. And some people have to deal with bullies. This could become so unbearable, that some children/ teenagers end up turning to suicide. Committing suicide is a terrible thing to deal with. But if ‘beat bullying’ can help, then things can be sorted out for the better.
