Child protection
Acting to protect children
Children depend on the adults around them to listen, support and take action to keep them safe. We believe that protecting Scotland's children cannot be left to social work or the police, or even to charities like CHILDREN 1ST – it takes every one of us in Scotland, including you!
Take a look at these Ten Top Tips to help you to do what you can to protect children.
You can ask for Ten Top Tips leaflets and posters to pass on to others or display somewhere near you by emailing info@children1st.org.uk.
There is also information available here to help you know who to speak to for further advice, and to give you handy hints on how you can keep children safe.
