Bullying Online was founded in April 1999 by Liz Carnell and her son John, as a direct result of their experience of dealing with school bullying. They decided to share their knowledge with other parents and pupils and identified the Internet as the most cost effective medium. Bullying Online became a UK-registered charity in May 2000 and has four trustees. In the last four years they have answered more than 21,700 emails. This workload was only possible by using voice-activated software and by having a number of experts on call to help with specific difficulties.
