We are committed to ensuring that all our volunteers and staff are appropriately screened and trained.4 This includes;
It's important that everyone in our community, including children and young people, are informed about their rights, and participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously.6 Added to this, we want families and communities to be informed and involved in promoting the safety and wellbeing of vulnerable people.7
