01
Dignity and respect
Every child and vulnerable person should be listened to, treated fairly and supported without discrimination, humiliation or exploitation.
Safeguarding
Protecting children and vulnerable people is part of every decision.
TALIRA aims to prevent harm, maintain appropriate boundaries, protect personal information and involve qualified services when a situation is beyond our role or capacity.
Our responsibility
Support must never create additional risk.
Direct assistance, outreach, referrals, volunteering and partnerships should all be planned with the safety and dignity of the person receiving support in mind.
TALIRA does not replace licensed healthcare, statutory child protection, law enforcement or specialist safeguarding services. We connect with them when their role is required.
Our commitments
Clear principles for responsible support.
These expectations apply to TALIRA staff, volunteers, representatives and partners involved in our work.
02
Safety comes first
A person’s safety takes priority over publicity, convenience, targets or the interests of an organization.
03
Information is protected
We limit unnecessary personal information and do not publicly disclose identifiable child cases, records or protection histories.
04
Concerns are acted on
Concerns should be raised promptly and referred to qualified services or appropriate authorities when specialist action is required.
Privacy and information
Collect less. Share carefully.
Public forms are for initial enquiries, not detailed child case files, medical records, identity documents or protection histories.
Information should be limited to what is needed, stored responsibly and shared only for an appropriate support or safeguarding purpose.
Photography and stories
A person is never content.
Images and stories must be appropriate, respectful and consented to where required.
Media should not expose a child or vulnerable person to danger, stigma, unwanted identification or loss of dignity.
When a concern is raised
A careful, proportionate response.
The exact response depends on the situation, urgency and the role of qualified services.
Listen carefully
Take the concern seriously without pressing for unnecessary details or making promises that cannot be kept.
Protect immediate safety
If someone may be in immediate danger, contact the appropriate emergency, statutory or child-protection service first.
Record only what is needed
Keep the initial information factual, limited and shared only with people responsible for responding.
Refer appropriately
Clinical, legal, protection and specialist concerns are directed to qualified professionals or authorities.
Follow up responsibly
Where appropriate, confirm that the concern reached the right service and clarify the next safe step.
Report a concern
Tell us promptly when something does not feel safe.
Share a brief factual description. Do not send detailed child case records, identity documents, medical files or sensitive evidence through the public enquiry form.
