Safeguarding
Keeping children safe comes first
Every child and young person deserves to feel safe, respected and listened to. Find out how we approach safeguarding, who to contact and how to raise a concern.
If a child is in immediate danger, call 999.
To report concerns about a child’s safety or welfare, contact the children’s social care team at the child’s local council. You do not need to be certain that abuse has occurred to raise a concern.
For advice and support, call the NSPCC on 0808 800 5000, available Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm.
