Good safeguarding depends on good communication.

At Pinewoods Ashbourne Respite Service, children, families, colleagues and other professionals all bring an important perspective to the support a child receives.

For Service Manager Shenice Walker, working together means “communicating with professionals, parents, guardians, the child and all relevant services to promote the child’s wellbeing, keep them safe and ensure their individual needs are met.”

It’s a practical example of this year’s Children First Awareness Week theme, The Power of Partnership, and why listening to the different people around a child matters.

Safeguarding children is a shared responsibility.

That’s the message at the heart of Children First Awareness Week, which this year explores The Power of Partnership: Working Together to Safeguard and Protect Children.

For Brian McCready, Head of Quality & Governance and Safeguarding Officer at Praxis Care, partnership begins with listening.

“Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. So working together means listening to the child and those around them and collaborating with other professionals to ensure that child is protected from harm and enabled to reach their full potential.”

Throughout the week, we’ll be sharing different perspectives on what that partnership looks like in practice across Praxis Care.

11 years of giving his time to others.

Known locally as ‘Praxis Paddy’, Paddy has been volunteering with Praxis Care for an incredible 11 years.

It began after Paddy retired and spotted an advert for volunteers in his parish magazine. He decided he had time to give and could put it to good use. His verdict more than a decade later?

“I applied and never looked back.”

As a befriender, Paddy has become a familiar and much-valued part of Praxis Care. Every Thursday, he meets Joe for a few hours of company, conversation, scones and, by Paddy’s own admission, a bit of gossip.

And after 11 years, volunteering remains something Paddy genuinely looks forward to.
“It gets me out and gives me something to look forward to. Praxis Care do an amazing job and I am very proud to play some small part in helping others.”

Eleven years of Thursdays, conversations and simply giving his time. Thank you, Paddy, for your incredible commitment to Praxis Care.
