Beginners Guide to
Safeguarding
Date Thursday 26 June 2008 in Bury St
Edmunds
Cost: Free to voluntary sector participants
The Suffolk Safeguarding Children Board has just celebrated its
first birthday! However, do we really understand how different the
remit of this Board is from the work of the Area Child Protection
Committee? So if you are struggling to understand what a LSCB is or
what the three area SCBs will cover or, if you need to know what
difference the Common Assessment Framework and ContactPoint will
make to your organisation, then spare a couple of hours for a
Beginners Guide to Safeguarding.
Cliff James, Head of Safeguarding in
Suffolk has kindly agreed to provide an insight to the
work of the Suffolk Safeguarding Board, review the progress made in
its first year and consider where it is going in the future. Cliff
will be pleased to answer your questions about what difference the
new system will make to you.
In addition John Lowe, Head of Vulnerable
Children for Suffolk County Council will also provide an
input about the Common Assessment Framework and the progress of the
new national data-base ContactPoint.
For more information call Alison Archbold at
Young Suffolk on 01473 744187 or email
