Groundwork commits to doing everything it can to ensure the safety of those involved in our projects, programmes and services.

Groundwork believes that a child, young person or adult at risk should never experience abuse of any kind. We have a responsibility to promote the welfare of all children, young people and adults at risk and to keep them safe. We are committed to practice in a way that protects them.

Our commitments include ensuring that the grant money we award is used responsibly and that the projects we fund minimise the risk of people coming to harm.  Information about Groundwork UK’s approach to Safeguarding and our Policy and Procedures can be found here.
