Adult Safeguarding Boards
Adult Safeguarding Boards are local groups that work to protect adults who may be at risk of harm, such as abuse, neglect, or exploitation. They bring together organizations like social services, healthcare providers, law enforcement, and community groups to coordinate efforts, share information, and develop strategies to prevent harm. Their goal is to ensure adults live safely, with dignity, and to respond effectively when concerns arise, promoting awareness and fostering a safeguarding culture within the community.
