September is Safeguarding Month in the Diocese of Broken Bay, where we celebrate the important role families play in keeping children safe.
This year the focus for the month is ‘Families’ and we hope to encourage everyone to reflect on how family connections promote safety and consider their shared responsibility in keeping children and young people safe.
We invite all families to share their experiences of how you connect as a family in the form of a story, a video or a photo during Safeguarding Month of September. The most creative entries entered will be showcased on the Diocesan Safeguarding Month webpage. Download the information poster below for links to ideas.
Make sure to check back each week as we promote further information this September.
