'What is CS?' - a workbook for practitioners and young people to support understanding of Contextual Safeguarding

What is Contextual Safeguarding and how this be explained to young people? This resource has been developed with the YRAP (Young Researcher鈥檚 Advisory Panel), Safer Young Lives Research Centre at the 亚色视频 and designed by Meera Shakti Osborne.

Aimed to support professionals in to have discussions about harm outside of home and introduce Contextual Safeguarding approaches to young people, this resource also has tips and advice for young people and a section where they can write down their own reflections on their safety in different contexts.

The YRAP explained:

"Our vision is that the resource will be filled out by the child with help from their safe adult to help think through safety in different spaces. This pack will then be part of their own personal care package with lots of information about their context and ways that others can support them in making them feel safe and protected.

Having an artist make our vision come to life gives it a personal touch and we understand that as young people when we are handed a piece of paper or a pack and it doesn't feel relatable, accessible and frankly looks quite boring and corporate it is hard to feel like you are being understood and it's difficult to engage with the information you are being given.

Her art is powerful and depicts people of all walks of life, we wanted the young people to see themselves in the design and relate to it."
