Recognise child abuse
Contents
Overview
Children deserve a safe, harm-free upbringing. It's essential to recognise and act against behaviours that endanger their welfare.
Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. You must:
- be alert: know the signs of harm and abuse including neglect
- act quickly: timely action can make a big difference in a child's life
- stay informed: learn about local safeguarding policies and procedures
We follow the London Safeguarding Children Partnership’s child protection procedures.
