“Children's charity NCH… said there was evidence that the 1,500%
rise in child pornography cases since 1988 would be reflected in
more children being abused to produce the pictures.”

At
the 2 week run at the Rosemary Branch Theatre in 2010, one staffperson
and one volunteer from Childline were present each night to answer
audience questions and provide information on how to recognize symptoms
of child abuse and how to help children who may be in danger.
They provided leaflets with information on volunteering and other
ways to help.
- A video
recording of Hooray for Hollywood has been used at a Childline
counsellor training days to show a child survivors' point of view and help
introduce discussion on the topic of the child exploitation
industry.
- In February 2009, Hooray for Hollywood and the Little Angel Theatre
raised £200 for the NSPCC to help prevent crimes against
children. The post-show discussion on 22 February was
co-facilitated by Belinda Hollows from Childline.
