Safeguarding Concerns

If you have a safeguarding concern, please report it.

Safeguarding is about protecting children, young people and vulnerable adults from abuse or neglect.

You may suspect that someone is being harmed or abused because:

• You have general concerns about someone’s wellbeing
• You see or hear about something which could cause abuse
• Someone tells you something has happened or is happening to them which could be abuse

How can I report concerns?
