In this bold episode of Safeguarding Redefined, Chris chats with Elizabeth Macauley, to ask the tough questions:
Are we truly hearing what children have to say?
Are we giving them the power to shape their own futures?
We dive into why children’s rights are still patchy and poorly understood across different services. In schools and social care, they’re known — but what about in the police, healthcare, and beyond?
Why is this still happening in 2025?
And which prominent country hasn't joined the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC)?
