Safeguarding from harm

What do we do?

The Liverpool Safeguarding Children Board is the forum for agreeing how services safeguard children and improve their wellbeing. These services are united in their aim to ensure that children grow up safely and enjoy the best possible health and education, and develop to their maximum potential.

Welcome from Stuart Smith

Welcome to the Liverpool Safeguarding Children Board website. We hope that professionals, young people, parents and carers find the guidance on these pages helpful. The site also offers professionals guidance on area procedures and provides access to training. We hope to develop the site over time to communicate with everybody who has an interest in keeping the children of Liverpool safe. We value participation and consultation, your feedback helps us to improve outcomes in local communities.
