Our Commitment to Safety, Dignity and Protection
Wings For The Nations is committed to protecting children and vulnerable adults from abuse, exploitation, neglect, harassment and avoidable harm. Safeguarding is a shared responsibility across staff, volunteers, partners, visitors and service providers.
Our safeguarding principles
- The safety and dignity of beneficiaries come before publicity or convenience.
- Concerns are taken seriously and handled through appropriate reporting pathways.
- Children should be listened to in age-appropriate ways and decisions should consider their best interests.
- Survivors of violence should be treated with confidentiality, respect and choice.
- Staff and volunteers should be screened, trained and supervised according to their role.
- Residential and child-focused areas should have controlled access.
- Photography, video and personal stories should require appropriate consent and risk assessment.
- Sensitive personal information should be accessed only by people who need it for legitimate programme purposes.
- Allegations or suspected abuse should not be concealed to protect the reputation of the organisation or an individual.
