Wooler Arts has a duty of care to safeguard from harm all children, young people and vulnerable adults with whom it interacts. We strongly believe that these people have the right to be treated fairly, justly, and have the right to freedom from abuse and harm.
Our safeguarding policy details the organisational procedures and best practice as applicable to all Wooler Arts personnel. This includes employees, volunteers, those who work on a freelance basis, and members of the Wooler Arts Steering Group. It ensures that all staff and volunteers accept responsibility for the safeguarding of people in their care. All suspicions and allegations of abuse and poor practice will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately.
