Tracy McNulty – CEO Bolton Community Kitchen

“We worked with KA safeguarding to develop a safeguarding policy for Bolton Community Kitchen, and the support we received was outstanding. They quickly understood the nature of our work and tailored the policy to reflect both our values and our legal responsibilities. The process was clear, professional, and grounded in a deep understanding of safeguarding. The end result gave us real confidence in our approach and helped strengthen our governance.”
