The Ombudsman for Children is a non-profit organisation. We work locally, regionally and nationally, always close to children. Our office is located in Uppsala.

Our vow of silence

We are not sworn to secrecy. This is our vow of silence.

  • We will not tell anyone that you have contacted us.
  • But if a child is in danger, we will tell social services or the police. If we intend to do so, we will tell you.
  • We do not keep any medical records. You can remain anonymous when you contact us.
