Safeguarding

 

There is also support for children via the Acorns Project, which meets at the Linskill Centre in North Shields. The Acorns project is open to children and young people between the ages of 6 and 18 years who live in North Tyneside and who are living with the effects of domestic violence. The project welcomes all children and young people within the age range and area regardless of their race, culture, religion, gender, disability or sexual orientation.

If you have concerns about someone else, North Tyneside Council have helpful information about how to let them know via their "Front Door" service.  You can see that here North Tyneside Council Front Door

If you have worries about personal safety because of domestic violence or because of any form of child abuse, any member of our practice team will do their best to help you and direct you towards sources of help and advice.
