Important info about working with me - Safeguarding and Privacy
Safeguarding Statement

As an Independent Drawing and Talking Practitioner and as an Artist Practitioner, my priority is always the safety and wellbeing of those I work with. As such, I will always take action in line with safeguarding principles if I am concerned about an adult or child.

Whether working with a child or adult, if I am working within a school, education or activities provider, I will follow their processes and raise concerns with their Designated Safeguarding Lead.

When working independently with children or adults, I will raise concerns through Hampshire Adult Services or Hampshire Children Services.

As an Independent Drawing and Talking Practitioner, I cannot discuss the content of sessions with anyone. However, they are not a secret and participants can tell people about sessions if they wish to.
