OUR COMMITMENT TO SAFEGUARDING CHILDREN & VULNERABLE ADULTS
At PSJ UK, we believe every child has the right to feel safe and protected. While our work is not directly focused on children, we sometimes meet and interact with children during our outreach programmes, peacebuilding missions, and community events.
We take this responsibility seriously. All our staff, volunteers, and partners are expected to act with respect, maintain safe boundaries, and put the welfare of children first if they encounter them. We will never employ children or involve them in our work in ways that put them at risk.
If anyone connected with PSJ UK becomes worried about the safety of a child during our activities, we will act quickly, report concerns to the right authorities, and work with local partners to make sure the child is protected.
If you ever have a concern about a child’s safety during our activities, please contact our Designated Safeguarding Lead or raise it with the head of volunteer management, who may be contacted at [email protected]. Any concerns raised will be treated seriously and confidentially.
PSJ UK stands for peace, justice, and dignity. Safeguarding children, even when our contact with them is limited, is part of that commitment. Together, we can make sure that every child and vulnerable adult who encounters PSJ UK is valued, respected, and safe.
