Safeguarding

A child is in immediate danger. What should I do?

If a child is in immediate danger, do not hesitate to call 999 and report this to the police.

Are you concerned about the safety or welfare of a child?

You don’t need to know everything about the child before contacting children’s services. If you are concerned about the welfare of a child, it is important that you talk to someone about this.

Contact children’s services on 0300 555 1384

If you are concerned about the conduct of a member of staff, either in a paid or voluntary capacity, contact the Local Area Designated Officer (LADO).
