LPC is committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all staff, students and visitors who access its services, grounds and facilities.

LPC believes that people, whatever their age, gender, disability, ethnic origin, religious belief, marriage/civil partnership and sexual orientation, have the right to protection from abuse.

We acknowledge in particular its responsibility to safeguard children under 18 and adults who may be at risk at any time when they are engaging in our activities whether they are on or off-premises.

We achieve this by ensuring that there are appropriate arrangements in place to enable LPC to discharge its duty to provide a safe and secure environment, to prevent abuse and to respond appropriately to suspected or reported abuse of under-18s or adults at risk.
