The University is committed to providing a safe community to work and study. This includes safeguarding the welfare of children, young people and adults at risk and protecting those most vulnerable.
These obligations extend to all who access our services, grounds or facilities and participate in our activities, including staff, students, contractors and volunteers/visitors, as well as individuals who engage with the University through research and innovation activities.
Safeguarding in the context of the University also refers more broadly to concerns about the wellbeing of students, staff and visitors and encompasses our Prevent Duty.
