Excerpt from the Book:
"High profile news stories about child abuse and the way in which an individual or an organisation has failed a child or a vulnerable adult are rarely absent from the national media. Whilst these often prompt useful debates about what should be changed, they rarely if ever highlight the extent to which abuse occurs in every locality. Regrettably at local levels, a belief persists that abuse is rare and when it occurs, it is committed by strangers. These are myths. Many adults and children die and many more suffer irreversible harm at the hands of their own family, or those whom society believes are best placed to care for them.
The term 'safeguarding' is largely accepted to mean protecting vulnerable people from maltreatment and preventing impairment of their health, circumstances of their development. For children in particular, it is about ensuring that they are growing up in circumstances consistent with the provision of safe and effective care. Thus the term can be used to describe both protective and preventative activity. It is an activity that takes place in a variety of different settings and at many levels.
