Complaints Policy

Effective Date: 1st June 2026

Complaints Policy

I am committed to providing a high-quality, safe, and professional mentoring service to all young people, parents/carers, schools, and partners. I welcome feedback and take all concerns seriously, using them as an opportunity to improve the service.

Raising a Concern

If you have a concern, please raise it as soon as possible by contacting me directly:

  • Email: hello@emerge-mentoring.com
  • Phone: 07562 104554

I aim to listen, respond respectfully, and resolve concerns quickly and fairly.

Formal Complaints Process

If the concern cannot be resolved informally or is more serious:

  • Submit your complaint in writing (via email or by requesting a Complaints Form)
  • I will acknowledge your complaint within 5 working days
  • I will review and investigate the concern
  • A written response will be provided within 15 working days, outlining the outcome and any actions taken.

If you are not satisfied with the outcome, you may request a further review. Where appropriate, an independent person may be involved.

Safeguarding Concerns

Any concerns relating to the safety or wellbeing of a young person will be treated as a safeguarding matter and responded to immediately in line with safeguarding procedures.

Confidentiality

All complaints are handled sensitively and confidentially. Information will only be shared where necessary to investigate and resolve the concern, in line with data protection requirements.
