Anti-Bullying Week

Anti-Bullying Week 2021

Anti-Bullying Week is a time for everyone to work together to eradicate bullying. The aim is to create safer environments for children and young people everywhere.

What is Anti-Bullying Week?

Anti-Bullying Week is organised by the Anti-Bullying Alliance which is a coalition of organisations and individuals who work together to stamp out bullying.

Each year, Anti-Bullying Week has a theme which is centred around the idea of tackling bullying at every level in society.

This year’s theme is: ‘One Kind Word’. The focus is on spreading kindness and helping people feel positive by what we say and do.

How Can We Get Involved with Anti-Bullying Week?

There are many ways we can take part in Anti-Bullying Week. It kicks off with Odd Socks Day on Monday 15th November. Wearing odd socks at school or work is a way of showing our individuality in a fun way. It’s popular for people to post photos and videos to social media during Odd Socks Day to show their support for Anti-Bullying Week, using hashtag #OddSocksDay.

Another thing you can do is to sign up as a supporter. You’ll receive a certificate for your school or organisation and the details of your support will be displayed on the Anti-Bullying Alliance website map.
