Kath Tunstall Chair of BSCB with the signed Statement of Intent
Statement of Intent The Bradford Safeguarding Children Board will work towards keeping children in Bradford, under the age of 18 years, safe from harm. We will strive to make sure that every child in Bradford feels secure, well cared for, and able to reach their full potential. We will support all staff to help families and carers achieve this. The Bradford Safeguarding Children Board will make sure that all people who work with children, and their families and carers know how important it is to keep all children in Bradford safe. The Bradford Safeguarding Board will help all staff and professionals to work together and know the rules about keeping children safe. They will understand the importance of listening to children, especially when children are worried about themselves or others. The Bradford Safeguarding Children Board will work to reduce all the kinds of harm that children can suffer, including abuse, bullying and discrimination and avoidable injuries and deaths. The Bradford Safeguarding Children Board will seek the views of children and the people who care for them in order for Bradford to become a place where all children feel safe and valued.
