Safeguarding Contacts

Reporting new safeguarding referrals and concerns

Safeguarding Duty Messaging Service: 01353 652747 

Please leave a message with your number and a brief explanation of the reason for your call. The team member on duty will be alerted to your message and will call you back.

A Safeguarding Advisor will call you back to discuss your referral. We will give professional advice and support and together with you agree a plan to manage the next steps.

Please note that messages left on the Duty Messaging Service outside normal office hours will be reviewed periodically but may not be responded to immediately.
