Annual Safeguarding Children Report

Report of Community and Children Services

Minutes:

The Assistant Director of Community and Children’s Services introduced the Annual Children and Adult Safeguarding report. He noted that both the Board’s were jointly working with Hackney Council. He added that by virtue of the Care Act 2014, adults were given the same level of care as children. This required Health and Wellbeing Board within local authorities to review their current safeguarding arrangements for adults. He concluded by noting that the City of London Corporation’s Dementia Strategy had been successful in raising awareness and assisting with self-assessment.

 

RESOLVED: That the report be noted.
