πŸ›‘οΈ Challenging permissive cultures

Creating safer environments is often about the everyday moments. When harmful comments, stereotypes, or β€œjokes” go unchallenged, permissive cultures can begin to develop.

πŸ”˜ Challenge harmful language early
πŸ”˜ Model respectful behaviour consistently
πŸ”˜ Make reporting routes clear and visible
πŸ”˜ Focus on patterns, not just isolated incidents

Small, consistent actions help build environments where respect, safety, and accountability are part of everyday practice.

🎧 Now Live: Chapter 3 Audio book – Working Together to Safeguard Children 2026

We’re pleased to share the next release in our Working Together 2026 audio series – Chapter 3: Providing Help, Support and Protection

If Chapter 1 set the foundations, Chapter 3 brings safeguarding to life in practice.

This chapter explores how we respond when children and families need help, from universal services and early help, through to Family Help and statutory intervention. It sets out what effective, coordinated safeguarding looks like in real terms:

βœ… Identifying need early

βœ… Working together across agencies

βœ… Delivering the right support at the right time

βœ… Acting decisively where children are at risk

You’ll also hear how the Family Help model creates a more seamless system for families, alongside clear expectations for assessment, planning, and multi-agency decision-making.

Whether you’re in education, social care, health, policing, the voluntary sector, or leadership β€” split into sections, this chapter is essential listening for anyone committed to improving outcomes for children.

πŸŽ™οΈ Designed to fit around your day, listen on the move, between visits, or as part of your professional development.

πŸ’¬ Teenage relationship abuse

Teenage relationship abuse can affect anyone and is not always easy to recognise. Harmful behaviours are sometimes dismissed as β€œnormal” relationship issues, but they can have a serious impact on a young person’s safety and wellbeing.

πŸ”˜ Controlling or possessive behaviour

πŸ”˜ Emotional manipulation or intimidation

πŸ”˜ Pressure around sexual activity

πŸ”˜ Online abuse, excessive messaging, or humiliation

Recognising unhealthy behaviours early and creating open, supportive conversations is an important part of safeguarding young people.

Helping young people understand what healthy relationships look like can make a lasting difference.

βœ… Safeguard simply | What is a DBS check?

A DBS check is carried out by the Disclosure and Barring Service to help employers make safer recruitment decisions.

It provides information about a person’s criminal record and whether they are barred from working with children or vulnerable adults.

DBS checks are an important part of safeguarding, helping organisations ensure the people they employ are suitable for roles of trust.
