I think you can make an anonymous referral to the child safeguarding teams at the local authority.

I'd be wary of direct contact with the neighbour. As @StanSPsaid it could take an unexpected turn. It's generally best to pass it on to those that have the experience and "power" to intervene.

 

Childline is still a way of anonymously reporting things such as you are experiencing. It's not just for kids.

Thank you. I'll take on both of yours advice. I just don't like the idea of going behind people's backs but I understand that it's probably the most sensible option

I read your original post and obviously thought it was absolutely horrendous. 

 

My Mrs is a social worker (not one that can be called a child snatcher, yeah, some people still say that)

 

There's always a duty of care there to report something. Report it.

 

It'll be investigated. If it's detrimental to a child, you could change their whole life for the better by doing it now.
