Approach to Safeguarding

The National Centre for Circus Arts takes seriously its duty of care towards children, young people and adults at risk, to ensure the safety of all those who take part in National Centre for Circus Arts activities, both on and off site

Raising concerns

If you have any safeguarding concerns, please raise them with any member of staff who can put you in touch with our Designated Safeguarding Leads or Officers as appropriate. We will always adhere to our safeguarding and child protection policies and, if applicable, will refer any disclosures or concerns to the relevant authorities.

However, we also recognise that there may be occasions where you wish to escalate an issue beyond the staff team, or report an issue anonymously.  In this case, you can contact the Chair of the Audit Committee who is a Trustee of the National Centre.
