Safeguarding For Parents

North Yorkshire County Council has a general duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children who are in need, and promote the upbringing of those children by their families.  The Children and Young People's Service takes a lead in child protection and investigation although referrals may come to them from all sorts of people - from schools, police, health or the voluntary sector.

Please note that this service is not provided by Ryedale District Council. Information on this service is provided by North Yorkshire County Council. Please select the link on the right for further information on their website.
