Carlene Firmin MBE is a Principal Research Fellow at the University of Bedfordshire, where she leads their Contextual Safeguarding programme. Carlene has researched young peoples experiences of community and group-based violence since 2005, advocating for comprehensive approaches that keep young people safe in public places, schools, and peer groups.
I heard Dr Firmin outline the principles of Contextual Safeguarding at the end of 2019 and I commented then that her ideas were among the most innovative I had encountered during some 30 years working in UK universities. Now that Ive read this book I am even more convinced of its originality and importance.

In my opinion, Contextual Safeguarding is one of the most significant developments for the safeguarding sector in many years. This book makes a vital contribution to the knowledge base, providing challenge and provoking thought in every chapter. Most impressively, it does so whilst also offering hope. It is essential reading for anyone interested in protecting young people and promoting safe communities.
Dez Holmes, Director, Research in Practice and Research in Practice for Adults, UK
If you want to know what the Contextual Safeguarding buzz is about, the new kid on the Child Protection block, youve arrived. This is a corker. In her inimitable style, Dr Carlene Firmin effortlessly unpacks this compelling, ground-breaking concept with a potency that leaves you wondering how weve ever done without it. An absolute game-changer for mis-labelled children and families needing protection from extra-familial harm hope now on the horizon.

For Obinna and Ziora-Blue, with whom I am home; my most important context

Figures
I start by acknowledging all of the young people, parents, and practitioners who have joined us on the road to Contextual Safeguarding. We have only reached this level of understanding due to your insight, engagement, and challenge. This truly has been a co-produced effort and long may this partnership continue. In particular I want to thank the young people whose cases form the basis of this work, the practice leads in our test sites, voluntary organisations that attend our implementation meetings and each one of our 6,000+ practice members who are championing the approach in their own teams and local areas.
Secondly, I want to acknowledge the efforts of the Contextual Safeguarding team at the University of Bedfordshire all of you have contributed to the ideas shared throughout this book. The values that underpin the approach, the systematic learning from practice, and the suite of practice resources that have come to the fore are due to your efforts. You inspire me every day. We have grown rapidly as a team since 2018 and with this in mind I want to give particular thanks for Dr Jenny Lloyd who has been by my side in developing the approach since 2016 and who was the first embedded researcher to attempt implementation in Hackney. I see you now more as a member of my family, and am privileged to call you a friend as well as a colleague. Your hard work knows no bounds and your commitment to excellence is evident in all that you do.
I also want to thank my line managers and mentors who continue to guide and support me. Dr Helen Beckett, Professor Jenny Pearce, Professor John Pitts, Dez Holmes, and Derek Bardowell have all played a critical role in keeping me on track, and mopping up tears when the pressure has got a bit much.
I am grateful for the support of many established scholars who over the past 18 months have reached out to encourage my efforts. I reference many of you in this text, and want to acknowledge the camaraderie you have shown in a sector which isnt always seen as collegiate.
And finally, but certainly not least, I want to thank my family for always being by my side; despite the late nights, dinner table debates and many work trips away. My mum for her lifelong support and inspiration and for being such a wonderful grandmother to my son; the work-life juggle is made immeasurably easier with you along for the ride. My husband Obinna for everything you do, big and small, to encourage me to fulfil my goals and be there at the end of the day to talk them all through (over and over again); for making sure I have plenty to smile about and to be thankful for when times are tough; and for supplying copious tea and wine. And not forgetting my ray of sunshine Ziora-Blue my biggest motivation and my greatest achievement.
My husband is weary about my preferences for television shows. For him evenings are about settling into the sofa for some laughs courtesy of a witty stand-up comic masterfully critiquing the politics of the day. I on the other hand wax and wane between two extremes: the whimsy and heartbreak of so-called reality television or the raw and challenging content featured in documentaries or films that document real life events where young people have come to harm. The reasons for this are not, thankfully, the subject of this book; and hopefully the upfront confession hasnt sent potential readers running in the opposite direction.
