Safeguarding Lead

This vital role involves ensuring Safeguarding is effectively dealt with at your food bank both from a day-to-day perspective and when a matter may need to be reported to a Statutory Agency. It also includes ensuring safeguarding training is delivered to staff and volunteers using external resources and ensuring policies and procedures are in place at all food bank locations. If any safeguarding is contracted to a third party (such as a church where a centre is based), liaising with the safeguarding team at that location will be required.

This role operates flexibly around volunteers’ availability.
