Safeguarding

Safeguarding Our Community

Exeter City Community Trust is committed to robust safeguarding policies and procedures to ensure the protection of children, young people and adults at risk. To ensure that we meet that duty – and as part of a proactive, integrated and consistent approach to safeguarding – we have developed our safeguarding policy. 

This policy can be viewed by clicking on the link below, whilst the remainder of this page will provide information on who to contact should you have any safeguarding issues or concerns.

If the matter is urgent and you cannot contact us, please call 999 particularly if you are concerned that someone may be facing an immediate risk. 

You can call The NSPCC 24-hour helpline on 0808 800 5000 or if it is an emergency because a child or children are at immediate risk, then please contact children’s social care in your area.

If you are concerned that someone may be behaving inappropriately or seeking to groom a child in an online environment, you can report a concern about child sexual abuse or online exploitation to the CEOP safety centre. All reports are assessed and responded to by CEOP’s specialist Child Protection Advisors. If a police response is necessary, it would be conducted in partnership with your local police force.
