It is unusual for Pontydysgu staff to deal directly with children, young people or vulnerable adults on a day to day basis. However there are occasions such as during workshops, training, and online where staff and volunteers may be in a situation to recognise, respond to and report issues related to safeguarding.
Pontydysgu recognises that safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility and with that in mind provides the following procedures, policy and support for staff, volunteers and associates.
As project coordinators we expect our partners to follow their own organisational and country-specific procedures but given the importance of multi-agency communication in these matters we extend our resources to our consortium partners.
