Safeguarding Review
Safeguarding is at the heart of all we do at Heart of England Mencap.
We are committed to creating a safe environment for our staff, volunteers and the people we support by ensuring that the fundamental principles of safeguarding are upheld at all levels.
This involves continual learning and reflection and over the past few months we have been working with an external organisation – The Ann Craft Trust – who are experts in all things safeguarding to help us review our safeguarding practices.
Focusing on Health & Wellbeing
It has never been more important to focus on the Health & Wellbeing of our team - we know that the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has had an effect on all parts of our lives, including our colleagues and the people we support.
We organised a Health & Wellbeing Survey to understand how people were feeling and to get feedback on how well we had responded during this difficult time.
