Safeguarding Children over the Summer

We all want children and young people to enjoy playing out over the summer holidays. As they get older they may want to start playing out on their own and further away from home, so you may not always be able to see what they are doing. However, there are a number of ways you can help keep them safe.

Be aware of the risks in your local area like derelict buildings, reservoirs and railway lines, as children may be tempted to explore and be unaware of the dangers of these places.

We want all children and young people to have a safe summer, so please talk to your child about the dangers and help us to keep all children safe. Please click on the link below for helpful advice to keeping your child safe during the summer
