1. Introduction

Welcome to the safeguarding section of the Childcare and Early Years website. Here you will find a variety of resources to help you in your everyday practice in keeping the children in your care safe.

If you have a concern about a child being abused or neglected, you can contact the Children's Services Support Hub and request to speak to an early help officer or a social worker to discuss concerns on 0300 123 6720 or out of hours on 0300 123 6722. For day to day advice and guidance contact the Early Years Safeguarding Officer on 07909 001430.

The NSPCC website has lots of useful, up to date and easy to understand information and advice about the signs, symptoms and effects of child abuse.
