Resources may include guidance materials, policy support, practical tools and wellbeing-focused content to help organisations support one another effectively.
What is Safeguarding?
Safeguarding is the action taken to protect people from harm, abuse, neglect and exploitation, and to promote their welfare and wellbeing.
Safeguarding essentials focus on the core knowledge and behaviours that everyone needs, regardless of role or sector. This includes:
Understanding what safeguarding is and why it matters
Recognising signs of concern and risk
Knowing how to respond appropriately
Being clear with roles, responsibilities and boundaries
Creating a culture where people feel safe, supported and listened to
Safeguarding is not limited to education. It applies to schools, colleges, charities, businesses, community organisations, sports settings, health and social care, and workplaces supporting adults.
We help organisations embed safeguarding as part of everyday practice, not just compliance.
Training and Resources
Guidance is built on recognised safeguarding frameworks used across education, organisations working with children and young adults, and adult focused settings.
