HISTORY
The London Anti-Bullying Coalition was founded in 2005 by concerned mothers in London,
who were brought together by the tragic commonality of their children being
bullied and victimized while in school.
These parents were faced with a challenge they knew they could not ignore. A
tragedy they knew not only touched the lives of their children, but of countless
other children in their community who had no voice.
They were incensed by the news of the tragic death of a local teenager who took
his own life due to the relentless bullying he suffered at the hands of his
peers.
These mothers selflessly began to advocate for their children and others by
forming a coalition now known as the LABC. Their mantra was "never again shall
we lose a child to bullying."
They created a non-profit, grass roots organization that was representative of a
diverse group of people in our community that would address not only the issue
of bullying, violence and harassment in our children's schools but also an
organization that would focus on the promotion of fairness, respect and equality
in every school for every child.
