The Quiet Revolution Conference held in the Park Hotel, Cardiff in March 2009 successfully introduced schools and related children and youth service providers to a number of tried and tested anti bullying approaches. Projects and organisations from across England and Wales came together to share their successes and offer their services to help reduce one of the most reported issues of major concern for children and young people today.
