Policies & Safeguarding
At Legacy Project, young people are at the heart of everything we do. As a global platform dedicated to empowering the next generation of changemakers, we recognise that with this responsibility comes a clear and unwavering commitment to their safety, wellbeing, and protection.
Safeguarding is not just a policy for us - it is a fundamental principle that underpins how we operate, engage, and make decisions. We are committed to creating safe, inclusive, and respectful environments where all young people feel protected, valued, and heard. This includes proactively preventing harm, responding appropriately to concerns, and continuously strengthening our practices to reflect the highest standards of care.
As a registered charity, we are also accountable for operating with integrity, transparency, and responsibility in everything we do. Our policies exist to ensure that we uphold these standards - protecting not only the young people we serve, but also our volunteers, partners, and wider community.
This section outlines the frameworks and procedures that guide our work. They are designed to ensure clarity, accountability, and trust, while supporting our mission to unlock potential and create meaningful, positive impact for young people around the world.P
