If you are worried about the welfare or safety of a child, it is very important that you contact us.
Salford City Council and our partners have a multi-agency hub called the Bridge Partnership that screen all contacts concerning the welfare or safety of a child.
The Bridge Partnership can be contacted by telephone on 0161 603 4500 from 8.30am to 4.30pm. If you need to speak to somebody about your referral of concern outside these hours, please call the Emergency Duty Team on 0161 794 8888.
All referrals and request for support concerning the welfare or safety of a child must go through the Bridge Partnership via our online portal, which you can access below.
Report a safeguarding concern on the Children’s portal
If you have any problems with the online form, please email worriedaboutachild@salford.gov.uk
If you have any safeguarding concerns about a person who may be vulnerable to radicalisation or being drawn into terrorism please complete the Prevent form.
You can make a referral to the Education Welfare Service.
If a child is in immediate danger of being harmed, or if a child is home alone, the police should be called on 999.
