Originally published in 1961, when the NSPCC played a very real and important part in the Welfare State.

Originally published in 1961, when the NSPCC played a very real and important part in the Welfare State. This is Your Child, written by the Director of the Society, and a Justice of the Peace, sketches the history of the Society and gives a moving account of the work it does in relieving neglect and cruelty to children, and in helping parents driven to their wits’ end by domestic problems.
It shows the way in which an Inspector approaches the many different problems which he encounters in his day’s work. It deals also with the Society’s extreme sanction of prosecution, which is used only in about two per cent of the cases which come to its attention.
The many pictures show dramatically the conditions the Society relieves, and the almost miraculous changes in maltreated children who come under its notice.
In existence for over 100 years and still striving to make a difference, the NSPCC believes ‘every child is worth fighting for’.
