Our safeguarding commitment

Caritas Gweru is committed to the safety and dignity of every person we work with, and particularly to children and adults at risk. Safeguarding is not a separate programme. It is a condition of every programme.

What we commit to

• All staff, volunteers and partners are bound by our child protection and safeguarding policies
• Communities are told how to raise a concern, and who to raise it with
• Concerns are received in confidence and acted on
• Reporting lines are clear, and referral to the appropriate authority is made where required
• No one who raises a concern in good faith is disadvantaged for doing so

Raising a concern

A concern can be raised with any Caritas Gweru staff member, with the diocesan office in person, by phone on Phone: +263 54 222 4405 Mobile: +263 77 357 4989, or by email to info@caritasgweru.co.zw. Please give as much detail as you are comfortable giving. You do not need to be certain that something is wrong before you report it.
