Safeguarding, welfare and urgent risk
This page is for general concerns, factual corrections, update requests and complaints relating to Dance Sport Trust material or activity.
It is not an emergency, crisis or safeguarding reporting route.
If you or someone else is in immediate danger, please call 999.
If your concern involves a child or young person who may be at risk, please contact the police, local authority children’s social care, the NSPCC Helpline on 0808 800 5000, or another appropriate safeguarding route.
Dance Sport Trust may signpost to relevant support routes, but we do not investigate safeguarding allegations or provide crisis, counselling, legal or emergency support.

Safeguarding, welfare or urgent risk concerns

Third-party disputes
DST does not investigate disputes between third parties, but may signpost to relevant organisations, policies or public information where appropriate.
Where a concern relates to safeguarding, welfare or immediate risk, it should not be submitted as a general correction, content concern or conduct complaint. Please contact the appropriate emergency service, statutory service, professional body, organisational safeguarding lead, or specialist support service.
DST will aim to acknowledge concerns and corrections in a reasonable timeframe. Where a correction is accepted, we may update the relevant page, add clarification, amend wording, or record that information has changed.
Raising a concern does not guarantee that DST will change or remove content, but all concerns will be considered carefully and in good faith.
