Safety

For young people who have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences the need to be safe, and in particular, feel safe, is very important.

We have developed robust forums which are held at least every three months, to ensure that our team, working with other professionals such as teachers and health workers, are prioritising and proactively ensuring that our children feel and are safe.

There are many ways in which we ensure that the safety of our foster parents, children and staff is at the centre of our work.
