In Cambridgeshire we are committed to raising awareness of adult abuse and ensuring your workforce is adequately trained – appropriate to their role and in line with local and national standards. Our training is based on principles from the Cambridgeshire Adult Safeguarding Board Inter-agency Policy which states:

• we take action when abuse is suspected
• we increase awareness and recognition of the issues involved
• all vulnerable citizens can access and receive support so they can lead safe lives
• we work collaboratively to prevent the mistreatment of vulnerable citizens

All our courses reflect the multi-agency nature of safeguarding adults work but also allows participants to share their experiences, skills and knowledge. Effective safeguarding involves appropriate information sharing, knowledge of your role and, the role of others.
