Using this Toolkit
This toolkit has been developed to support Faith, Sporting, Voluntary and other Community Organisations to understand and meet their requirements in relation to safeguarding of children and adults at risk of abuse or neglect.
It should always be used alongside the local multi-agency safeguarding children and adult procedures. You can find a link to these procedures on the main welcome page of this toolkit.

This toolkit contains a local resource section which can be accessed via the navigation bar or Local Resources button. This is an electronic documents library that is populated and maintained locally by the Safeguarding Children’s Partnership and/or Safeguarding Adults Board.
The library is structured around key headings. Clicking on the heading will reveal the list of resources available. Clicking on the resource will enable access to it.
If there is a local resource that you think should be added to this area, you should follow the instructions for providing feedback found on the main welcome page of this toolkit.
A system administrator is a person (or persons) whose role is to manage the local resource area. This includes structuring the sections, adding resources and deleting resources.
Before undertaking any action on the local resource area, the system administrator/s must be assured that:

- The resource is not in draft form;
- The resource is in the correct format (PDF if not designed to be edited);
- The resource is legally sound and reflective of local requirements;
- The resource does not breach any copyright;
- The resource is not in breach of the Data Protection Act 2018 or the UK GDPR;
- Any online resource links are working and secure.
Legal advice should be sought as necessary.
