Keeping you safe

Keeping people safe is called Safeguarding. Safeguarding means people are protected from abuse and neglect. Abuse is when someone does or says things that frighten you or cause you harm.  Neglect is when your care and support needs are not being met. 

If you or someone you know is being harmed, tell someone you trust like care workers or your family.  You can find out more by clicking on the green words on this page.
