Article: Welcome to Barnsley Safeguarding Children Board Website

If you work with children and young people, you'll want to do whatever you can to make sure they're looked after properly, kept safe and protected from harm. Whether you're a teacher, social worker, health practitioner, a volunteer, or work in any other field with children and young people in the borough, we hope you find the information on the site useful.

If you're a parent or carer looking for advice about keeping your family safe, take a look at our 'parents and carers' pages. 

If you're a young person worried about your own or another young person's safety, we've included some useful links to a range of support services who will listen to your worries and help you get things sorted out. Just click on the 'children and young people' tab on your left.

For anyone who is concerned about a child or young person and needs someone to talk to, just follow the advice on our 'What to do if you are worried about a child page'.
