If something is not right, we want to know. Here is how to tell us, and what happens next.

Worried about a child’s safety?

Charis Bridge is led by its founder, Adedoyin Gbemisola Fatoki. If your concern is about her, or about how a child has been treated, you can go straight to Luton Borough Council or the police. Concerns about an adult who works with children can be reported through the council’s “Report a concern about an adult who works with children” service. The Luton LADO advice line is 01582 548 069.
