Cardigan Campus

Harm and risk outside the home (ROTH)

What children's services across the authority record, beside Wales, and what it means for the policy and staff training.

Exploitation indicators

UK Crime Statistics' county lines indicator for the mile around the campus, with the drug, weapons and anti-social behaviour records it read; the places where violence, drugs and weapons offences concentrate; and the bus stations and interchanges where crime was recorded. Each is a prompt for vigilance, with what a designated safeguarding person can and cannot read into it.

Getting to college

The stations, bus stops and interchanges learners pass through, with the streets that recur in the record around them.

10 parks, open spaces and playing fields lie within a kilometre of the campus. No station or bus interchange lies within a kilometre. 20 bus stops lie within 500 metres.

The area around the campus

The deprivation of the place learners come into each day.

The neighbourhood the campus stands in (a small statistical area of about 1,500 residents) is in decile 3 of the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation, in the more deprived half of small areas in Wales. The figure describes the neighbourhood, never a family or a student.

Roads

Collisions around the campus involving people aged sixteen to nineteen, in the hours learners travel.

Between 2021 and 2025 the police recorded 13 injury collisions within 500 metres of the campus. 5 collisions involved someone killed or seriously injured.
