This website is for anyone worried that a child in Glasgow may be at risk of abuse or neglect.
Glasgow’s Vision
Glasgow’s children have a right to feel safe and be protected. In Glasgow, all services have a responsibility to ensure children are safe and their needs met. Services will work in partnership with children and their families and communities wherever possible to achieve this.
To achieve this vision we will work:
- To ensure strategic leadership and ownership of activity in Glasgow to protect children and young people
- To improve co-operation between agencies in Glasgow in their work to protect children
- To enhance the development and delivery of services in Glasgow.
Most children grow up in homes where they are loved and well cared for. However sometimes a child may be harmed or mistreated in a way that is abusive. In such cases it is important that the child and his/her family receive help and support to ensure that the child is properly cared for and protected.
This website has been developed by Glasgow Child Protection Committee. In the website, you will be able to find information on what to do when concerned about a child, advice on when you might be worried about a child's safety and information on what might happen next.
You can also search the site for information about local and national services. Professionals can find out about training and recent publications, as well as policies and forthcoming training events.
