Safeguarding Concern Report Form
About this document
The form staff, volunteers and trustees complete when they are worried about a child or adult at risk, when someone tells them about abuse, or when there is a concern about one of your own people. The second half records what the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) decided and did – the audit trail you need if a decision is ever questioned.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
