Safety is part of the programme, not a footnote.
REMIX is committed to creating safe, respectful environments for young people, volunteers, staff, partners and the wider community.
Need to raise a concern?
If someone is in immediate danger or there is an emergency, contact the emergency services. For a non-emergency concern connected with REMIX, email hello@remixyouth.org.uk with the subject Safeguarding concern. Avoid including unnecessary sensitive information in the first email.
Our safeguarding commitment
REMIX’s brief states that safeguarding training is mandatory and regular for volunteers, with clear reporting procedures aligned to charity law and best practice. This website reflects that commitment while avoiding claims about named safeguarding personnel or policies that have not yet been supplied for publication.
What participants should be able to expect
- Clear role boundaries and appropriate adult behaviour.
- Respectful treatment without discrimination, harassment or exploitation.
- A clear route to raise a concern or say when something does not feel right.
- Appropriate recruitment, checks and training for roles that require them.
- Information handled sensitively and only shared where there is a legitimate need.
Mentoring boundaries
REMIX mentoring is intended to be structured, goal-based and supported. Volunteers are not substitutes for qualified health, social care, legal or safeguarding professionals. Where needs fall outside a volunteer’s role, they should be escalated through the appropriate REMIX procedure.
Before launch
REMIX should add the approved safeguarding policy, the name or role title of the Designated Safeguarding Lead, a dedicated safeguarding contact route if used, and any required reporting details before the site is treated as the organisation’s final public safeguarding resource.
