The past nine months has been difficult for everyone. Lockdowns, social distancing measures and local restrictions meant that adults working with children had to change the way they operate. But how have we adapted and how has COVID impacted on the NSPCC’s priorities?
In this episode, we reflect on the past nine months with our CEO, Peter Wanless, discussing the issues and challenges children and young people are facing;what child protection and safeguarding themes have emerged; delivering services for children and families remotely.
This episode covers:
- the issues and challenges children and young people are facing
- what child protection and safeguarding themes have emerged
- experiences of delivering services for children and families remotely
- how we’ve worked with partners to ensure their employees are confident in recognising possible signs of abuse
- our work to increase awareness of the NSPCC helpline for adults and ensuring Childline is still there for children during this time.
