What Is Safeguarding?

Safeguarding is any action taken to protect young people from harm, whilst supporting their wellbeing and welfare. We will always safeguard all young people we have contact with. We safeguard young people because we care about their wellbeing.

How Do We Safeguard Young People?

We safeguard young people who contact us or use our services in a number of ways.

• We have a dedicated safeguarding team who are trained to support young people and protect their welfare.
• Our safeguarding team train all of our staff to be able to support young people and protect their welfare.
• If our staff have any concerns about a young person’s safety or welfare, they will confidentially let our safeguarding team know, who will look at the best way to support the young person.

Who Are We Going To Tell If We’re Concerned?

If we have genuine concerns for the safety or welfare of a young person we may need to seek advice on how to best support them, which could mean contacting other services. We cannot promise to keep anything a secret when it concerns safety, but only because we care about the wellbeing of young people.
