Safeguarding

Important:

Draft — awaiting legal review

This page is a draft and is awaiting review by a qualified professional. It does not yet reflect a final legal position and should not be relied upon.

Significant Impact does not work directly with children or with adults at risk. Keeping people safe still matters in everything we do, and anyone can raise a concern about our work.

Our commitment

Everyone we work with has the right to be safe, to be treated with dignity, and to be listened to. That applies regardless of who they are or what they believe.

Reporting a concern

If you are worried about a child or an adult at risk in connection with our work, please tell us. You do not need to be certain, and you do not need proof. It is our job to look into it, not yours.

If someone is in immediate danger

Contact the emergency services first. Please do not wait for us.

Confidentiality, and its limits

We handle concerns discreetly. We cannot promise absolute confidentiality: where someone is at risk of serious harm we may have to act, including telling the authorities. We will be honest with you about that rather than promise something we cannot keep.

What we expect of partners

Organisations we work with are expected to meet the same standards. Where they will not, we do not work with them.

Our safeguarding contact route is not published yet

A dedicated safeguarding contact has not been published yet. If someone is in immediate danger, please contact the emergency services first.
