Safeguarding

Birth Companions is committed to providing safe and supportive environments for everyone who comes into contact with our organisation or is involved with the work we do.

If you think a child or an adult is in immediate danger

Don’t delay. Call 999 now and ask for the police.

If you are worried about the safety or welfare of a child

Call the NSPCC helpline for advice on 0808 800 5000, or the child’s Local Children’s Social Care Team.

If you are worried about the safety or welfare of an adult

Call the adult’s Local Adult Social Care Team.
