:04:49. > :04:54.as a business, Waterlogged fields meant
:04:55. > :05:04.parking was a nightmare. One week after organisers wdre

:05:08. > :05:09.on and people are still vexdd. Here are some of the comments on BBC
:05:10. > :05:14.Radio Devon's lunchtime phone in. There was no organisation for people
:05:15. > :05:18.stuck in traffic whatsoever. The word that came to my mind
:05:19. > :05:22.all the way through was gredd. Because they were trying to maximise
:05:23. > :05:28.the number of people in the field to get the maximum
:05:29. > :05:31.amount of money out of them. If they had gone ahead
:05:32. > :05:36.the previous week, even though the sun was shining, there would
:05:37. > :05:39.have still been a few probldms. Torrential rain on Wednesdax and
:05:40. > :05:45.Thursday night was the problem but it has also emerged that thd show
:05:46. > :05:49.was not insured for wet weather. Considering we have been here
:05:50. > :05:53.for 25 years and it is the first time we have had to cancel,
:05:54. > :05:56.the premiums we would have paid over those 25 years would bd well
:05:57. > :06:02.in excess of our loss this year. Next week,
:06:03. > :06:04.organisers will be contacting It is not clear what
:06:05. > :06:09.they will be offered. Some say the key thing is
:06:10. > :06:11.the show goes on. But we have had 190
:06:12. > :06:17.in a row that were not. Let's just put it
:06:18. > :06:21.down to experience and move on. Organisers say that
:06:22. > :06:25.despite this year's huge loss, A children's charity is reporting
:06:26. > :06:41.a big increase in the number of referrals to the police and local
:06:42. > :06:44.authorities of children suffering In the last 12 months the NSPCC
:06:45. > :06:49.says 625 cases were so serious they This compares with 444 the
:06:50. > :06:54.previous year in the South West Earlier, I spoke to Sarah Allum
:06:55. > :07:06.from the NSPCC. Emotional neglect is where
:07:07. > :07:08.a child is perhaps ignored, not There is little or no communication
:07:09. > :07:14.between the carer and the child. Emotional abuse is little or no
:07:15. > :07:20.communication between the carer That they are worthless, unloved and
:07:21. > :07:31.that nobody cares about them. and that nobody really has any care
:07:32. > :07:35.for them whatsoever. Why do you think we
:07:36. > :07:38.have seen this rise? The data we have has not
:07:39. > :07:43.been fully analysed. What we are clear about is there has
:07:44. > :07:47.been an increase in calls to help lines in the last year, quite
:07:48. > :07:49.significantly possibly based on some cases nationally that we
:07:50. > :07:52.have heard about, have been severely emotionally
:07:53. > :07:55.abused, leading to their deaths, It might be that the public are
:07:56. > :07:59.more aware and more able to come forward and talk confidenti`lly
:08:00. > :08:02.to somebody on a helpline who Can emotional abuse be as b`d
:08:03. > :08:06.as physical abuse? A child who is severely emotionally
:08:07. > :08:10.abused in their younger life may not grow up with physical scars
:08:11. > :08:14.but certainly they may suffer long`term mental health isstes
:08:15. > :08:18.and potentially also suicide. Are there any particular ardas
:08:19. > :08:22.of concern in the South West? We have seen a significant increase
:08:23. > :08:27.in the last year, particularly in Plymouth, where
:08:28. > :08:30.calls that have had to be referred out to Children's Services or
:08:31. > :08:35.the police have increased bx 60 . As I said,
:08:36. > :08:41.it may just be that the public are more prepared to come forward
:08:42. > :08:45.and we can then refer their concerns But there can be a happy outcome,
:08:46. > :08:50.can there not? Children's Services,
:08:51. > :08:54.the National Health Service and voluntary organisations such
:08:55. > :08:58.as the NSPCC are working to try to help provide treatment and
:08:59. > :09:00.therapeutic services for these young
