Safe Spaces
Crisis-to-Care support
A clear, step-by-step overview of how we manage referrals, protect dignity, and meet legal safeguarding requirements.
✽ How We Keep It Safe
A clear pathway
from crisis to care
Intake & consent
We listen first, explain options clearly, and agree what information can be shared, with whom, and why.
Risk & safeguarding
We assess immediate risks, record decisions, and take safeguarding action when needed, in line with legal duties.
Care plan & follow-up
We coordinate next steps, keep communication consistent, and review safety plans so support remains steady.
What to expect
A quick guide for professionals, parents/carers, and young people.
Fast first response
You’ll receive a clear next step: what we need, likely timelines, and who will be your point of contact.
Clear documentation
We keep records that support safeguarding, accountability, and continuity of care—without unnecessary detail.
Respect & dignity
We prioritise safety, choice, and voice—supporting each person without judgement.
Our vision: the UK’s first 72-hour Safe Space—a breathing space for parents and babies
A place where families can stay safe, cared for, and supported while we work together to determine the best path forward.
This facility does not yet exist. We’re building it together—with families, professionals, funders, and community partners.
