Latest review: March 2024
1.1 As an ethical and humanitarian charity, 乱伦社区 (鈥楬ALO鈥�, the 鈥楥harity,鈥� or 鈥榳e鈥�) is committed to ensuring that it provides a safe and trusted environment which safeguards and promotes the welfare and wellbeing of anyone who comes into contact with, or is part of, the Charity; that is communities impacted by our work, in particular children and adults whose circumstances have made them more vulnerable to abuses of power, staff (including partner organisations) and volunteers.
1.2 The Trustees recognise that they are ultimately accountable for ensuring that those benefiting from, or working with, the Charity are not harmed in any way through contact with it and that they are treated in a safe, respectful, and appropriate manner. This responsibility particularly relates to young people (those under 18 years of age, as defined by the UN Secretary General) and adults whose circumstances have made them more vulnerable to abuses of power (the elderly, or adults who require support/ care, or who might be vulnerable to any form of harassment, or intimidation due to their circumstances).
1.3 This policy provides a framework for HALO鈥檚 Safeguarding Directive, which explains how safeguarding is being and will be delivered across the Charity.
