Fearless Scotland provides a range of useful resources that help parents, carers and those working with young people to encourage them to speak up about crime.  

Fearless, the youth service of Crimestoppers, aims to equip young people with knowledge of its unique service to empower them to make their lives and communities safer. It is a tangible, positive tool for education and youth professionals and parents and carers to share to help support them to make positive choices as they grow into adulthood. 

The resources they provide range from a general guide for professionals, over lessons plans for secondary schools to guides for football coaches, spanning over every aspect of a young person’s life.
