All children have the right to live their lives free from violence, abuse, neglect and exploitation.
Funded by the London Borough of Camden since 2006, the Community Safeguarding Partnership Service (CSPS) aim to support, encourage and assist all voluntary, supplementary schools and faith groups, delivering services to children in Camden to be confident in their ability to keep them safe.
Are you a voluntary organisation, group or supplementary school delivering services to under 18’s in Camden?
If so, please contact Dianne Carlton-Ogunyemi at dogunyemi@vac.org.uk for safeguarding training, guidance and support on keeping children safe.
By offering a tailored approach to child protective challenges, the service works alongside organisations and groups to reinforce good practice and embed safeguarding culture within service delivery.
Over the last 12 months the project has delivered workshops and training courses on issues such as delivering safe virtual services, grooming and radicalisation awareness and abuses linked to faith, culture and beliefs.
This is a long-term project which aims to continue improving child safety and ensure that safeguarding issues are adequately addressed in the planning and delivery of local services.
