It’s never too early to start thinking about safeguarding your children…
K
eeping your children safe is one of a parents or carers most important jobs. It will start off as trying to prevent accidents by using stairgates and fireguards but as they get older and start to spend more time away from your care, you will need to start thinking about other issues.
The Safe Network was set up to provide advice, support and guidance to voluntary and community groups who work with children and young people in England as well as providing parents and carers with information about how to safeguard their children.
A joint partnership between the NSPCC, Children England and the Child Accident Prevention Trust, providing a whole range of advice and support for groups about what they need to have in place to
ensure children can take part in activities safely. Also dedicated information for parents and carers covering such topics as preventing bullying, online safety, questions to ask groups as well as other pages covering important topics.
You should always remember that it is absolutely fine for you to ask anyone looking after your child - whether they are a child-minder, after school club, church group, etc. what they do to safeguard children.
For more information, take a look at the Safe Network website.
