The Independent Safeguarding Service CIC is a social enterprise with a very singular vision: to enable a transformation in the quality of safeguarding in the UK. Our belief is that organisations which come into contact with children and adults should have access to everything they need in one central resource. This keeps staff, and those using their services, both safe and compliant with safeguarding responsibilities.
