Keeping people safe

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.

We are committed to protecting the adults, families and communities we support from abuse, neglect, exploitation and avoidable harm.

Our commitment

Safety, dignity and respect.

Everyone should feel listened to, treated with dignity and able to raise a concern without fear of being ignored.

We take safeguarding concerns seriously. Our staff and partners are expected to notice signs of harm, respond appropriately and pass concerns to the people or organisations who can help.

How we respond

A clear, careful response to concerns.

01

Listen and take concerns seriously

We make space for people to speak up and respond respectfully when someone tells us that they feel unsafe, worried or at risk.

02

Act on concerns promptly

We record relevant information, consider immediate safety and follow the appropriate internal and professional safeguarding pathway.

03

Work with the right people

Where appropriate, we work with Social Services, health professionals, emergency services and other relevant organisations to help protect people from harm.

04

Share information responsibly

We share information on a need-to-know basis and may share information without consent when this is necessary to protect someone from serious harm or where the law requires it.

If someone is in immediate danger

Call 999.

If there is an immediate risk to life or safety, contact the emergency services first. Once it is safe to do so, let the relevant professional team know what has happened.
