As a LGBTQIA+ charity and a community-based organisation, we believe in prioritising people’s safety and welfare.

​

Safeguarding is about protecting a person’s health, wellbeing, and human rights, enabling them to live free from harm, abuse, and neglect. 

​

Every one of us is responsible for safeguarding at East Coast Pride.

 

It’s important that everyone has an understanding of safeguarding, champion’s ethical behaviours, knows how and when to report concerns, and takes every reasonable precaution to minimise risks.
