We recognize that children, young people and vulnerable adults can be at risk of discrimination, neglect, abuse and exploitation by those who are in positions of trust and power over them.

We recognize our obligation to put in place all reasonable safeguarding measures to ensure, as far as possible, the safety and protection of all children, young people and vulnerable adults with whom we work and those in the communities where our work is undertaken.

We understand that we may not remove all the risks, but we must do all we can to reduce it or limit its impact. We are committed to safeguarding the rights of people and communities we serve.
