Safe Space Legal is Australia’s premier legal practice dedicated exclusively to child safety and safeguarding. We are here to support your organisation in every aspect of its journey towards creating a safe space for children and vulnerable people.
We offer Safeguarding Audits & Child Safe Compliance Audits, providing Australia-wide support to organisations committed to child safety and safeguarding. From comprehensive compliance audits to fostering a safeguarding culture, we are your dedicated partners in ensuring excellence in child protection and the safety of vulnerable adults.
We understand how hard it can be to obtain the right support to manage the needs of children at risk of harm successfully. We will work with your organisation to provide a comprehensive plan to safeguard children and vulnerable people within your care.
For many organisations, internal audits provide valuable feedback but may not give a complete picture of your organisation’s overall safeguarding culture. Independent audits offer a fresh perspective that can build on or bridge gaps in policies and implementation.
Not only do we have a wealth of experience in this area, but we are committed to providing an unbiased and thorough audit report. We go beyond the surface, delving into critical aspects of child safety such as culture, recruitment, policies, procedures, training and record keeping, to identify areas where risks may lie.
In addition to the Express Audit, we can provide further services if required including training, policy development, investigations and critical response.


The Express Audit encompass a high-level review of your safeguarding policies and procedures, with a keen eye on governance and compliance. We act as an external review mechanism, offering an unbiased perspective to enhance the integrity of your safeguarding processes.
Whether you are an organisation with limited time to assess and implement your own review, a new organisation looking at getting started, or an organisation seeking improvement after an incident, we tailor our support to meet your unique needs. We will work closely with key stakeholders and provide clear recommendations to improve your safeguarding capacity.

Our Safeguarding Audits offer an unbiased, high level audit report. We assess your policies against the relevant Child Safe Standards or National Principles for Child Safe Organisations, identifying areas for improvement and providing actionable steps.
Our audit reports provide clear and actionable insights into your organisation’s safeguarding practices. You’ll have the assurance that your practices align with relevant legislation, and will be able to identify gaps to improve your safeguarding capacity.
