Safeguarding week brings together multi-agency partner organisations to learn about ‘hot topics’ identified in Learning Reviews locally and nationally and to give everyone the opportunity to learn about emerging themes and priorities.
By reaching out to multi-agency partners it provides an opportunity for large numbers of the workforce to hear consistent messages and provide a seamless approach to working with children and families.
