Welcome
The main board has senior representation from the key statutory agencies (Health, Police, Children & Younger Adults, Connexions, Youth Offending Service, CAFCASS, District Councils).
The board meets bi-monthly and takes a strategic overview on safeguarding children.
The Safeguarding Children Partnership Group is a practice based forum that meets three times a year to discuss and share information about keeping Derbyshire children safe.
Safeguarding Children Board sub-committees meet regularly to look at specific areas of the safeguarding children agenda.
District Safeguarding Children Management Teams are responsible for many aspects of keeping children safe including disseminating information, raising public awareness and providing training within their area.
This website
This website is currently being re-developed to reflect the activity of Derbyshire Safeguarding Children Board.
It is hoped that the site will be of use to professionals, community groups, parents and young people who will be able to use it as a source of information about keeping all our young people safe.
If you are worried about the safety or welbeing of a child go to the Contact Us section of this website for details of who to contact and how to make a referral.
