Stroud District Council has a legal duty of care to protect all children, young people, and adults, who come into contact with our services.
Subsequently, our Safeguarding Policy and Procedures Guide reflects our dedication to ensuring that people are supported to gain good access to support services, remain well and thrive. We actively promote well-being, help prevent abuse, and respond promptly and appropriately to safeguarding concerns and incidents.
