Message From North Wales Safeguarding Board


Friday 29th Mar 2024


The North Wales Safeguarding Board are asking everyone within the region to look out for one another in order to help those who may be at risk of abuse and neglect.

 

This is a message which applies at all times, but now more than ever, people at all ages need protection. Communities are currently experiencing unprecedented times as a result of Coronavirus, with social distancing and self-isolation being one of the key messages and advice being provided by Government.

Whilst this will undoubtedly help with the prevention of the spread of the virus, unfortunately, this will also mean that children, young people and adults at risk within North Wales may potentially be at an increased risk of abuse and neglect.

Please be vigilant and look out for friends, families and neighbours and if you see any signs at all that makes you think that they may be experiencing any type of harm, report your concerns to your local safeguarding teams”.

If you have concerns about a child:  In Denbighshire, please phone:  01824 712200 or out of hours: 0345 053 3116

If you have concerns about an adult in Denbighshire:  please call 0300 4561000 or out of hours: 0345 053 3116
