·        ensuring that children, parents/carers and staff are able to talk about any safeguarding concerns and feel assured that they will be listened to

·        ensuring that all staff and volunteers are aware of and implement safeguarding procedures and guidance, including what to do if they suspect a child or young person may be experiencing, or be at risk of harm.
