ChildProtectionCommittee

Dumfries and Galloway Child Protection Committee Vision Statement: "children and young people should be protected from abuse, neglect and harm by others at home, at school and in the community.

The Child Protection Committee is made up of representatives from across the main statutory and voluntary organisations in Dumfries & Galloway, and ensures that these local agencies work together to protect children.

All children and young people have the right to be protected and kept safe from harm and we all have a responsibility to help protect them whether:

• we work with children or families,
• are a parent, carer or a family member
• or a concerned member of the community.
