The Joe Peters Foundation of Survivors

To close its services due to the lack of financial support

10 years today (Our anniversary)

24^th July 2010

Dear Friends,

The Foundation of Survivors is a non-profit organisation, due to the recession and funding issues we had to restrict our services by 80% we only able to give email support to children and adults from now on, we been helping children and adults since 1999 and also offering a range of referral services for counseling young people, unfortunately and beyond my control I failed miserably to get funding through larger charities and donations from businesses.

It’s a great sadness the foundation I ran for 10 years that was true to my heart is closing its services from the effect of 24^th July 2010; I cannot fund the foundation by myself any longer, which has mostly been the case since 1999, through my book sales and out my own family pockets.

Whilst I will always be dedicated to helping both children and adults that have suffered childhood abuse, I can only help with restricted services. Our Freephone support has gone. If you are a child in need please feel free and call our landline 01656 – 770526 or email abuse@crysilenttears.co.uk

The worry and stress of running the foundation on fresh air, has had severe effects on my health and family environment, I would like to apologise to all that have used our service that we no longer can give Freephone support.

I would like to thank everybody for their help and support over the 10 years and to all my many friends for doing their best for the foundation.

God bless

Mr. Joe Peters

I read with interest Joe’s post about Social Services and how they are spouting the age old statistic of the abused becoming the abuser. Can I swear Joe? What a load of old bollocks! As a victim of abuse the last thing I would ever submit my children to is any form of abuse or neglect. What I have longed for my whole life I finally have, a loving family around me! Why on earth would I want to inflict what I went through onto the people I love?

Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics - This will surely make you very angry, Beijing have terrible child abuse but in the form of training children to be Olympic medalists and we are encouraging Olympics? This will make you feel sick!! It made me so angry I in fact threw up that this is allowed to go on. How can the brutal training of child gymnasts be allowed to continue? If we as parents were pushing our children to these lengths surely we would be reported to Social Services…

As part of my job as an advocator for abused children, it is my resonsibility to hopefully educating the world about the real child abuse. I came across this child abuse video which I would like to share with you the readers, I am not hiding the fact that any of the videos shown should butter this once taboo subject up, this will certainly be a big eye opener, its time we act now.
