Safeguarding means the action that Whalley Abbey takes to promote a safer culture. This means: we will promote the safeguarding and welfare of children, young people and adults; work to prevent abuse from occurring; seek to protect those that are at risk of being abused and respond well to those that have been abused. We will take care to identify where a person may present a risk to others and offer support to them whilst taking steps to mitigate such risks. Our safeguarding policy is available here.
