Safeguarding

Safeguarding is really important to us at Leeds Sanctuary – we believe safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, and it is at the core of our vision, mission and values. We believe that every single individual has value and dignity, which comes from the creation of us all in God’s image and likeness. Therefore, we have a duty to protect people from harm.

Leeds Sanctuary is committed to the work of safeguarding and we are proud of the principles embodied in our policy. It is our hope that safeguarding is undertaken with a smile and that those who need help will feel respected, listened to, and understood. We also hope that, even in the most difficult of times, a place of safety and support can be offered to create safer spaces for all.

Our Safeguarding Officer is our Operations Manager, Mick Neal.
