Safeguarding

Safeguarding statement 

All children, young people and vulnerable adults have the right to be protected. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) strives to ensure that everyone involved in our Volunteer Police Cadets (VPC) Scheme are safeguarded and protected from harm, whatever their specific needs and circumstances. GMP acknowledges its responsibility to safeguard and promote the wellbeing of all children, young people and adult volunteers/employees.

We are committed to ensuring our safeguarding practices, procedures and policies place the voice of our cadets at the centre of our planning and implementation processes. We will at all times prioritise the wellbeing of our cadets, other young people and where required, vulnerable adults in all we do and are committed to ensuring all our activities and engagement within the wider community is held to the highest standards of safeguarding practice; is compliant with current legislation in England and Wales; is child and young person centred; and that we are fully accountable.
