When to Take Action
This section gives you advice and guidance about when you need to take action.
You should take action if...
- A child, young person or vulnerable adult tells you that they are being abused
- You suspect that abuse has taken place
- You think that the safety or welfare of a child, young person or vulnerable adult is at risk
- You have concerns that an individual has behaved inappropriately, or that a colleague has demonstrated poor practice
Please remember that NOTHING is too small to share with the designated officers if you are worried, DON’T ignore it.
