Childine volunters answered 1020 calls from children on Christmas Day

Volunteers with Childline, Ireland’s 24-hour listening service for children and young people, answered 1,020 calls from children and young people across the country on Christmas Day.
Childline offers children and young people free, non-judgmental and non-directive phone line, live text and webchat services 365 days a year. To ensure these services could remain active throughout Christmas Day, dedicated volunteers gave up their time this year to listen, support and empower young callers.
