Safeguarding

Nottingham Forest Community Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

We recognise that everyone within the Community Trust has a duty of care to safeguard the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk, creating a safe and inclusive environment that protects them from harm.

While safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility, the Community Trust has a dedicated Safeguarding Team in place who can provide advice and who hold responsibility for leading the response to safeguarding concerns.

The Community Trust takes all safeguarding concerns seriously. If you require any safeguarding advice, please contact the Safeguarding Team using the contact details above or email: safeguarding@nottinghamforest.co.uk.

Alternatively you can report via the necessary buttons below.

In an emergency, or if you consider someone is at risk of harm, call 999.
If you have any Safeguarding concerns or queries about the Trust please contact Nottingham Forest’s Head of Safeguarding, Lou Gibson – louise.gibson@nottinghamforest.co.uk.
