Our Policies

We are committed to:

• taking all reasonable steps to ensure the safeguarding and welfare of all those that come into contact with Surrey Care Trust
• putting their welfare as a priority in all we do
• respecting their views, feelings, and rights

Who is responsible

All adults in Surrey Care Trust are responsible for putting our safeguarding policy at the centre of all planning and operations and to follow the clear reporting process when they suspect or are aware of a safeguarding incident or concern. They receive information and training that outlines their responsibilities to safeguarding, which starts at recruitment.

Recruiting the right people

Surrey Care Trust follows Safer Recruitment guidelines to ensure we have the right people working and volunteering with children, young people and adults at risk.

Anyone working with, or volunteering for, Surrey Care Trust will receive and have access to details of our Safeguarding children and vulnerable adults Policy  and our Health Safety Policy. They will be responsible for adhering to the policies at all times.
