Reporting a Concern

We all have a duty to protect children and young people from harm. If you have any concerns about a child or young person, it is always best to share them.

If you think a child is in immediate danger please contact the police on 999.

If a child is not in immediate danger, but at risk of harm contact:

Staffordshire Childrens Advice and Support Service (SCAS) on:

0300 111 8007

 

Opening times

  • Monday to Thursday 8:30 am to 5:00 pm
  • Friday 8:30 am to 4:30 pm

Out of hours

Outside of the hours above, or on weekends and bank holidays, please contact the Emergency Duty Team by phoning 0345 604 2886 ( or Mobile 07815 492613)

 

What happens when you call SCAS?

Social workers follow up every report where they believe a child may be at risk of harm. They will talk to other people who know the child and may be able to provide a clearer picture. This includes teachers, health visitors and members of the child's family.

After this several things could happen:

  • No further action will be taken
  • Help and support will be offered to the family
  • An investigation will take place
