SRYP support Stop, Look, Listen safeguarding campaign

Somerset Rural Youth Project is supporting NCVYS’ (National Council for Voluntary Youth Services) safeguarding campaign ‘Stop, Look and Listen’ on 28^th February, National Safeguarding Day.

 SRYP has made a pledge:

“We pledge to spend time on the 28th February reviewing the organisation’s Safeguarding policy. We are also going to run a Safeguarding training session with all staff at our staff residential in March, refreshing the team’s existing knowledge. We continue to signpost and support 60 affiliated youth clubs, ensuring a high level of safeguarding awareness and best practice is in place at a large number of youth facilities across Somerset.”

Members of the Board and senior management team spent the morning of 28^th February reviewing the policy, and plans for the staff training session in March are underway.
