How it all began
The tragic death of Maria Colwell in 1974
affected the public at large.
Led to numerous self help groups emerging in
1970’s for three main reasons:
1. Community concern for child abuse
2. Self Awareness for parents under stress
3. Publicity about parent self-help movements
in UK
![Page 23: Www.safenetwork.org.uk Welcome To the Launch of the National Safeguarding Unit for the Third Sector Friday 5 th June 2009.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649efc5503460f94c0ffa0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Select Committee Report on Violence in the Family 1977
Key Recommendation:
“ We recommend that parents should be
encouraged to form groups where parents who are
at all anxious about the way in which they are
bringing up their children can meet and preferably
also provide some regular telephone support”.
![Page 24: Www.safenetwork.org.uk Welcome To the Launch of the National Safeguarding Unit for the Third Sector Friday 5 th June 2009.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649efc5503460f94c0ffa0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

What do parents ask us ? Parents contact us through various channels : a 24 hour
helpline, SMS, websites and message boards and local
authority referral.
Parents’ safeguarding queries can be divided into three
main types:
1. Fears and concerns about harming their own children
2. Concerns over a third party e.g. neighbour, friend,
non-resident parent, step parent harming their
children
3. General safeguarding issues e.g. age appropriate
behaviour, baby sitting rules.

Preserving the safe space
Confidentiality
Relationship to statutory providers and government
guidance
Balancing the needs of the parent and the child
within the safeguarding network
National vs local – where do we fit?

How can safe network help ?
Offer clarity about the differences between
voluntary and statutory roles in safeguarding children
Recognise and support the crucial role the third
sector fulfils for parents as a non-threatening place
to explore concerns.
Support third sector with robust procedures and
training. And so, give confidence to balance threshold of
confidentiality and safeguarding
Independent quality assurance mark.
