Good safeguarding means having the right policies, procedures, and checks in place to make sure your volunteers, staff, and the people you support are protected.
Every organisation, no matter its size or purpose, has a role to play in safeguarding. Whether you work directly with children, young people, or adults at risk, or simply have regular contact with the public, it’s important to understand your responsibilities.
Everyone in your organisation has a responsibility to recognise and respond to safeguarding concerns. This means being aware of the signs of abuse or neglect and knowing how to report them.
Having clear safeguarding policies in place ensures that all staff and volunteers understand their roles and know what steps to take if they have concerns.
Checking that staff and volunteers are suitable for their roles, including carrying out DBS checks where necessary, helps keep everyone safe.
Regular safeguarding training ensures that everyone is confident in recognising risks and taking appropriate action.
If you have concerns about someone’s safety, it’s essential to follow the correct reporting procedures to make sure the right support is provided.
