Safeguarding Children Policy Guidance and Checklist

Children have the right to be protected from abuse and harm so it is important that any organisation or group that works with them has a clear set of guidelines about how they will keep children safe and to respond to child safeguarding concerns.

DSP has developed a Safeguarding Policy check list which highlights key areas you should consider including.
