National Safeguarding Adults Week 2024

Cheshire East Council and the Safeguarding Adults Board will be supporting National Safeguarding Adults Week with a range of activities to make people aware of the different types of abuse that some people experience.The National Adult Safeguarding week starts on Monday 18 November and is an excellent opportunity to promote adult safeguarding and the work that a number of organisations are doing to protect residents across Cheshire East. 

Safeguarding Adults Week is a time for organisations to come together to raise awareness of important safeguarding issues. The aim is to highlight safeguarding key issues, facilitate conversations and to raise awareness of safeguarding best practice. So we can all be better together.

We hope the week will enable more organisations and individuals to feel confident in recognising signs of abuse and neglect and recording and reporting safeguarding concerns.

The theme for Safeguarding Adults Week 2024 is 'Working in Partnership'

Each day will focus into different areas around the topic. 

Monday - Look, Listen, Ask - Developing Professional Curiosity.

Tuesday - Working in Partnership: How to effectively work with people you support.

Wednesday - Establishing Professional Boundaries.

Thursday - Recognising exploitation: The ladder of criminality.

Friday - Professional and Organisational Learning 

 

Throughout the week the campaign and planned events will be highlighted by Cheshire East Council and its partner agencies on social media. Look for the hashtag #SafeguardingAdultsWeek.
