Safeguarding
The Labour Party is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults at risk from abuse, and promoting their welfare. The Labour Party believes that it is unacceptable for anyone to experience abuse of any kind, in any circumstances, including through social media and other online activity. Children, young people and adults who may be at risk of abuse have a legal right to protection from all forms of abuse.
We have a duty of care to ensure that this remains the case throughout all contact that they have with us. Safeguarding is the responsibility of all staff, members, volunteers and elected representatives of the party. The Labour Party will take all safeguarding concerns seriously and will value, listen to and respect children, young people and adults at risk encouraging them to talk to us about anything that worries them. We will always act in their best interests.
You can find more resources, including a safeguarding course, on the dedicated Safeguarding page on Labour Learn.
