  • community engagement: highlighting the importance of local partnerships and community involvement in creating safe environments
  • cultural shift: advocating for a shift from compliance-based safeguarding to a more integrated, welfare-focused approach that puts children first
  • youth involvement: stressing the importance of involving young people in decision-making and creating environments where they feel safe and valued

Anita Stewart: "I went into an organisation and did a forum with some young people from a disability group in Norfolk, and we were asking them what made them feel safe and what safeguarding meant to them. A young person said, 'when I think of safeguarding, I think of folders, risk assessments and bits of paper.' And then we asked them what makes them feel safe? She said 'people make me feel safe'. And from that we came up with 'Let's move safeguarding from policies to people'."
