Child safety and reporting

If someone is in immediate danger, call 000. You can raise a concern without proof and without giving your name.

Report a safeguarding concern

Concerns about MTCC staff, including the CEO, go to Bill Vine, Board Chair. All other concerns go to Ross Dinnar, CEO. The reporting page also explains direct reports to police, Child Safety and QFCC.
