Parents and carers

Every child has a right to be safe. There are times you may worry about your own child or someone else's child.

• Do you know a child who lives with domestic abuse?
• Do you know a child who lives with drugs and alcohol?
• Do you know a child who may be at risk of sexual abuse?
• Do you know a child who is injured?
• Do you want help and advice to keep your children safe?
• Do you want to access a national organisation?
• Are you subject to a child protection enquiry?

If you are worried or concerned about anyone under 18 please get in touch. Please contact The Bridge Partnership on 0161 603 4500. It could be that one phone call from you could help safeguard the wellbeing of a child who may be at risk. Our trained staff are ready to listen to your concerns and offer advice and help.

Do you want to help us improve experiences for families?

Are you a parent or carer of a child in Salford? Would you like to have a say in how services work for families? Can you help us make sure that children in Salford grow up safe, well and achieve their full potential? We’d love you to join Salford Parents for Positive Change (P4PC) and help us guide and grow the way we work with families in Salford.  Visit the P4PC webpage for more information or use the contact form at the bottom of this page to get in touch.

In Salford, we want everyone who works with children, young people and families to really listen to what they are telling us. We have created a set of Salford standards for listening and we are learning about what has worked in other areas. Parents from Camden visited us recently to share what is working well. They explained how they are working together with professionals to shape services and make sure they get it right for children and families.

We’d like your views on different ways of working, based on your own experiences and what you think would work best for families. We might send you online surveys, or invite you in to focus groups or workshops. We’d never ask for details about your journey or experiences, and if you change your mind at any time that is totally fine.
