Safeguarding

We all have the right to live in safety. Safeguarding is the protection of adults and children from abuse and neglect, which may be from a friend, family member, professional or stranger, or self harm.

If we are concerned about an adult or a child, we have a legal duty to report our concerns to the right people such as the local authority, emergency services, GPs or mental health teams.
