Safeguarding
We all agree there is nothing more important than ensuring the wellbeing of the children, families and adults with whom we work. Keeping ourselves safe is also of major importance, and the aim of the Policy and Procedure is to provide a framework and guidance to enable a safe and secure working environment where everyone can thrive and benefit from our programmes and activities.
We work with some of the most vulnerable children and adults in Britain. It is therefore of the utmost importance that there is continuity across Mothers’ Union in our approach to safeguarding. This can only happen if everyone plays their part, by reading, understanding and adhering to the Safeguarding Policy and Procedure.
The MU Coventry Trustee Board has agreed to adopt the central Mothers' Union Safeguarding Policy and the Safeguarding appendices.
Please remember safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility – protecting everyone and that includes ourselves!
A programme of safeguarding training is being rolled out, the basis of which will be the Safeguarding Policy and Procedure.
