As an organisation that works primarily with children and young people we prioritise safeguarding. We follow our safer recruitment procedure which includes all staff, volunteers and trustees having references undertaken and enhanced DBS checks prior to starting work with us. We have a safeguarding handbook which all staff, volunteers and trustees read during their inductions. Our safeguarding handbook contains our safeguarding policy and procedure. It also contains who we should contact when we are concerned about a child and our whistleblowing procedure. We also have safeguarding basic cards displayed in each of our nursery playrooms, which contain information about the different types of abuse, what you should do if you are concerned and who you should speak to, for example, our designated safeguarding leads. All staff complete the Leeds Safeguarding Children Partnership ‘Introduction to safeguarding children and young people training’. Designated Safeguarding Leads also attend Leeds Safeguarding Children Partnership ‘Working Together to Safeguard children training’.

Around the time of diagnosis families often suffer anxiety, denial, grief and anger. This project will provide individualised early support to children and their parents. Funding will pay for a family support worker and manager salaries, some of the organisation’s costs to support the project, travel expenses and staff training. The project will mean families are less isolated and more knowledgeable, resilient and confident. It will support the child to access services and get the best possible start in life.
