Safeguarding

Masjid Al-Noor is committed to keeping children, young people and adults at risk safe from harm. Everyone who works or volunteers with us has a responsibility to act on any concern.

Our commitments

• We follow a written safeguarding policy, reviewed every year by our trustees.
• Staff and volunteers who work with children or adults at risk have the appropriate background checks (PVG in Scotland, DBS in England, Wales and Northern Ireland).
• We provide safeguarding training for those staff and volunteers.
• We take every concern seriously and act on it promptly.

Raising a concern

If you are worried about a child or adult connected with the mosque, please speak to our safeguarding lead, whose contact details are shown on this page. You can also speak to any trustee.

If someone is in immediate danger, call 999.
