Hidden Harms Campaign - Wednesday 07 Apr 2021
The North Yorkshire Safeguarding Children’s Partnership (NYSCP) is asking anyone working with children and young people as well as communities and members of the public to remember safeguarding is everyone’s business and to report any safeguarding concerns they have about children and young people.
The Covid-19 pandemic and resulting lockdowns have placed increased importance for people within communities to ensure that they are alert to safeguarding risks and take appropriate action by reporting any concerns they may have.
To help anyone recognise the signs of hidden harm the NYSCP has prepared a range of resources including resources for parents and carers, professionals and the general public as well as posters, graphics for posting in social media and other items. For details please visit:

The NYSCP has also developed a webpage dedicated to helping people identify the signs of hidden harm and what to do if you spot these. This is available from:
