If the Designated Safeguarding Lead Cannot Be Contacted
Safeguarding concerns should normally be reported to the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL/DSAL) or a senior manager within the organisation. However, if neither the DSL/DSAL nor a manager is available and you remain concerned about a child’s safety or welfare, you must not delay taking action.
In these circumstances, staff should seek advice or make a referral directly to Cumberland Safeguarding Children Partnership through the Cumberland Children’s Advice and Support Service (CCASS).
Telephone: 0333 240 1727
If a child is in immediate danger or at risk of significant harm, contact the Cumbria Police by calling 999.
Where appropriate, professionals may also be required to complete a Single Contact Form to formally refer concerns to children’s services. Safeguarding concerns should never be delayed while attempting to contact the DSL/DSAL if a child may be at risk.
General enquiries regarding safeguarding procedures can also be directed to Cumberland Safeguarding Children Partnership via email at CSCP@cumbria.gov.uk
