The NSPCC will work with Children England to create a set of child protection standards and will then support the voluntary sector in meeting those standards. It will create a safeguarding unit that will deliver information and advice both online and over the phone; work particularly with organisations serving disadvantaged groups; and endorse work that meets agreed standards so parents and young people are better informed when choosing activities.
The unit will be expected to work closely with the Independent Safeguarding Authority, the Children's Workforce Development Council and the Child Protection in Sport Unit, as well as linking with the Association of Directors of Children's Services and safeguarding advisers in regional government offices.
