Safeguarding is the practice of protecting the safety of children or vulnerable adults.
Children and young people with additional needs and disabilities can face an increased risk of discrimination and harm from adults and other young people and children.

If you see signs of harm or abuse of a child or young person, you should:
- call 999 in an emergency

- report it to us by phone: 020 8583 6600
