Our commitment to safeguarding
RABI believes everyone has the right to live free from abuse or neglect regardless of age, ability or disability, sex, race, religion, ethnic origin, sexual orientation, marital or gender status.
We are committed to creating and maintaining a safe and positive environment and an open, listening culture where people feel able to share concerns without fear of retribution protecting from harm our beneficiaries, employees, volunteers and any other people who come into contact with us through our work.
RABI acknowledges that safeguarding is everybody’s responsibility and is committed to prevent abuse and neglect through safeguarding the welfare of all involved.
Everyone has a right to be protected from abuse, and all suspicions and allegations of abuse and neglect will be taken seriously and responded to appropriately.
Our Council (Board of Trustees) is accountable for all activities undertaken by and in the name of RABI. While acknowledging its collective responsibility the Council has appointed John Lelliott as our Safeguarding lead.
Our expectations of those who work in our name

Our values reflect those we support; caring, fair, trust, respect and stewardship and we expect and require everyone who works for RABI, whether volunteers or employee, or those who undertakes services in our name to meet our expected standards of behaviour.
We have an approved Code of Conduct which applies to all staff and volunteers and sets out the culture of our organisation and the expected standards of behaviour.
Actions will be taken against individuals where their behaviour places others at risk of harm.
