Safeguarding

Summary

I currently represent the children and young people’s Voluntary and Community Sector (VCS) on the Devon Children's Safeguarding Board (DSCB). The recent Ofsted highlighted a number of areas for improvement for the DSCB one being how the statutory and voluntary sectors are brought closer together around Safeguarding issues. We have already agreed that VOYC will be facilitating two sessions a year where individuals working in the VCS will be able to meet with David Taylor the Chair of the DSCB to hear about the work of the Board and raise any concerns they might have.
