Rochdale Council and Rochdale Borough Safeguarding Children Board have launched a campaign called 'Safe After School' to help parents chose safe after school activities for their children. Click here to watch an information video.

What should parents ask providers?

• Can I stay to observe the sessions?
• Can I read your policy on safeguarding children?
• Can I read your health and safety policy?
• What emergency procedures do you have in place?
• Can I have a copy of your code of conduct for staff, volunteers and for children?
• Are all staff trained in safeguarding and first aid?
• Who do I speak to if I have any concerns?
• Do you have a child safeguarding page on your website, leaflet or information sheet that I can read?

For more information on the Safe After School campaign please visit: RBSCP Safe after School – advice and resources. 

If you have a concern about a provider then please report it to: lado@rochdale.gov.uk  or if a child is in immediate danger - dial 999.
