ABA Spokespeople
ABA offers media-trained spokespeople (adults and young people from Young ABA) for broadcast and print interviews.  All ABA spokespeople are experienced interviewees and can talk on a wide range of anti-bullying issues, including:

• the work of ABA
• Anti-Bullying Week
• the effects of bullying on children and young people

If you'd like to get in touch with an ABA spokesperson, please contact Anna Tombs. Our spokespeople include:

Chris Cloke Chris Cloke has been ABA's chair since 2006. He is also head of child protection awareness at NSPCC
Sue Steel Sue Steel is the National Manager of the Anti-Bullying Alliance, a post she has held since 2007.
Lauren Seager Lauren Seager is the ABA Regional Coordinator.  Lauren is responsible for leading the work of the ten ABA Regional Advisers who support anti-bullying work in local authorities, schools and community settings across England.

Young ABA

It's vital that the experiences and opinions of young people are at the heart of the work we do. That's why, in 2007, the ABA and ABA member The Diana Award, established the Young ABA. Young ABA has a board of 18 members from around the country, who lead the organisation's work and support ABA in the regions. These board members all have experience of being bullied or experience of anti-bullying work and have quickly become a network listened to - and consulted by - the UK Government. Many of the Young ABA have given print and broadcast interviews.  If you would like to talk to an inspirational young person, please contact Anna Tombs:
