Welcome!
Thanks for visiting my website. I started
this website back in 2003, after hearing of the death of 11 year old Thomas Thompson who took his own life after being badly
bullied. This really struck a chord with me, no child should go through something like that.
I genuinely care about this subject and decided to open up about my past
to help others. The petition on this site is calling on the Government to do more to help young people,
to put support networks in place to help the children failed by the current system. Some schools have a
great initiatives and some lack in what should be a nationwide support network.
Stay strong, and don't let the bullies
make you feel small.
Kindest Regards, 
“I fully support this anti-bullying campaign and would like to
congratulate all those courageous people involved in developing this website to help others. We all have a responsibility
to tackle bullying” Boris Johnson, Mayor of London

"I
would like to congratulate Dafydd Jones, Kim Bell and everyone involved in this website, for their stance against bullying
in school. As every parent knows, this is a crucial issue. Bullying can make young people's lives a misery, and we must
do all we can to stamp it out. That our schools are a safe environment in which pupils feel at ease is the very first prerequisite
for learning. I favour home school contracts that are enforceable. Put simply if parents and children don't sign up to
a code of behaviour and stick to it, they cannot attend"
David Cameron MP, Conservative Party

“I’m delighted to be able to lend my full support to this campaign. Bullying is deeply harmful,
not only to the children involved, but also to their families and the wider community. It must not be tolerated – and
there can be no exceptions. I would like to congratulate Dafydd and all those involved in this campaign for their dedication
to raising awareness of this important issue. We must all work together to eradicate bullying – schools, communities
and politicians alike – and I wish this initiative every succes”
Nick Clegg MP, Leader of the Liberal Democrats "I
fully support this campaign and I wish Dafydd, Kim & Sue all the very best" "We all need to work together to
tackle bullying and this is a big step forward" Lorraine Kelly, GMTV Presenter

There is and old saying which you may have heard from adults it goes like this, "You can't see the wood for the trees”.Roughly translated it means when you are in, or part of a problem it's difficult see the way out. I bet
like most of us you are great at helping others sort out their problems but not so good at your own and that is precisely
why we all need friends, family and teachers to help suffer on your own, us during difficult times in our lives.If you are experiencing bullying in any form please,
please don't speak to whoever you need to until the problem is dealt with.I think you would be surprised how many people including organisations like 'Dafyddjones.org'
are there to help and give you the advice you can't give yourself.
Anthea Turner, TV Presenter
"Whether it is in the work place
or school I firmly believe that bullying should not be allowed to happen. I am happy to support Dafydd in his efforts
through this website to draw attention to the issue and keep it on the government agenda"
Duncan Bannatyne OBE, Businessman
