Mela Policies

Preston City Mela Community Interest Company (PCM CIC) is committed to ensuring that its business is undertaken with making safeguarding as a core element of its work and decision making. As an arts and cultural capital-based organisation that promotes opportunities for children, young people and adults to experience new and multi-cultural arts, were safeguarding will be at the forefront of our work.

PCM CIC will ensure safeguarding practice reflects statutory responsibilities, government guidance and complies with best practice. We will also make every effort to ensure that children and adults at risk of abuse can engage with the arts and culture safely, and that there are effective processes and procedures in place to respond to concerns should they arise, in the course of our work.
