Only very stupid headteachers could say that. My son's school say that they have zero tolerance of bullying, but they can only act if they know its going on, and of course the bullied child often doesn't come forward. Bullying isn't going to disappear. nell

Yes they aren't available anymore. I requested one months ago and haven't received anything. The idea is to raise awareness of bullying, many Premiership footballers and other high profile celebrities were wearing them in support. Becx

Maybe you could make your own, out of something like ribbon? Can't be anything magic in a circle of plastic. Val

I tried for weeks to get some of these bands from the B.B.C. and now there are none avaiable- why do these people never ever make enough of a product- they must have had some idea on what reaction they would get. Lizzx

Hi Susan As far as I have heard they have all "gone". I have also heard that they are changing hands on ebay for a fair bit of money. The latest I heard was that children wearing them were being victimised by other kids. I could be totally wrong as these are things that people have told me they've heard on the radio/seen on TV. Sorry I couldn't be of much help! Good luck to your daughter, I hope things get better for her at school. Lynne Just checked ebay and they are going for up to £36 each. Shocking
