Welcome the official FISS Safeguarding

 

 

Safeguarding Children & Young People Policy

 

FISS is pleased to announce our working partnership with SafeChild. SafeChild was established in 1999, and is a registered charity dedicated to child protection. Uniquely SafeChild can meet all of our child protection needs including training, CRB checks and has help produce our child protection policies and procedures, ensuring we have a strategic and professional response, when dealing with Child Protection.

 

Policy Statement

 

We recognise that the welfare of all children and young people is paramount and that all children and young people; regardless of ability or culture, have equal rights of protection. We have a duty of care when they are in our charge and we will do everything we can to provide a safe and caring environment whilst they attend our activities.

 

Policy Aim

 

As members of SAFEchild, we aim at all times to attain the SAFEchild standards in all our activities with children, young people, their families and/or carers. We will achieve this by adhering strictly to this policy, SAFEchild guidance and risk assessments

 

Child Protection Lead and Deputy

 

The responsibility of managing the safeguarding of children can be both demanding and challenging, and therefore must be appointed at managerial level to personnel who are available when we are operational.

Their role is to oversee and ensure that our safeguarding children policy is fully implemented and that we attain SAFEchild standards. These details will be made available to all adults, children, young people and parents/carers by online training, posters and leaflets. This includes ensuring they and all staff receive child protection training as appropriate. The deputy should be available to support or cover for the nominated lead. S/he will also handle any complaints or allegations against the nominated lead if appropriate. If FISS members are concerned that a child protection issue may not be managed appropriately, anyone may contact social care services or the police if a crime may have been committed, directly under “whistleblowing”
