NCB Now: The Safe Network up and running

1 min read
In January 2009, Children England and the NSPCC were awarded the contract under the government's Staying Safe Action Plan to set up a national safeguarding unit for the third sector.

The official launch of the Safe Network on 5 June marked the culmination of five months of hard work and determination from colleagues across the NSPCC and Children England.

The Safe Network's momentum is set to continue over the coming months as it works with the Department for Children, Schools and Families, and partners, to use their influence and networks to reach a wide range of third sector organisations, including those offering unregulated sports and activities, to encourage and help them to introduce effective and sensible safeguards. As one of the unit's delivery partners, NCB will be supporting the dissemination of the Safe Network materials and activities across our third sector members and specialist networks, councils and forums.
