Housing and Property Management Safeguarding Children Policy
We are committed to safeguarding our communities so that the borough is a safe place for all to live well and independently.
Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. Housing and Property Management play a vital role in recognising when a child is at risk of significant harm and working with other services to improve lives.
Our Housing and Property Safeguarding Children Policy sets out our responsibilities as set out in the London Child Protection Procedures, which are underpinned by Working Together to Safeguarding Children (2018).
