REPORTING A CONCERN

If you have information about a safeguarding situation where a child or adult is in immediate danger or requires immediate medical attention, call 999.

If you do not think there is a risk of immediate danger but you are concerned that a child or vulnerable adult is at risk of harm you should approach your parish safeguarding officer. 

You will need to record in writing details of  what you have seen or heard but need take no further action.
