Addressing Safeguarding Risks in the Early Years through a Focus on Reducing Parental Conflict
You are invited to a series of Topical Webinars and Community of Practice Workshops in January, February, and March 2025.
The audience for both the Topical Webinars and the Community of Practice workshops include all those who were invited to join us at the symposium, regardless of whether or not you were able to attend, and partner organisations or individuals who you would like to invite to attend alongside you. This might include for example:
- People with responsibility for early years safeguarding within Children’s Safeguarding Partnerships – to help them consider the importance of reducing parental conflict in their work.
- Reducing parental conflict leads in Local Authorities (LAs) or Children’s Trusts (CTs), wherever they may sit, to help them think about the issues that are specific to early years.
- Early years and Family Hubs lead to raise awareness of the agenda so that they can support settings in their local area.
- Colleagues from services supporting adults, including adults with mental health needs, disabilities or addiction issues, who play an important role in identifying where parental conflict may be a risk to babies and children.
- Key health leaders e.g. in Midwifery, Health Visiting, Ante-natal & post-natal support to raise awareness.
- Early years system leaders (e.g. Stronger Practice Hub leads, large PVI chains) who want to develop their capabilities in supporting their settings.
Upcoming Events (all will take place via MS Teams)
- Community of Practice Workshop 1 - Tuesday 21 January
- Topical Webinar 1 - Monday 27 January
- Community of Practice Workshop 2 - Wednesday 26 February
- Topical Webinar 2 - Wednesday 5 March

Inappropriate WhatsApp Group
There is a WhatsApp group titled "Add People". The group contains hundreds of children and young people and has inappropriate content such as naked images of AI adults. It is believed that children as young as 7 years old are being added to this group, and as the title suggests the aim is to add as many other children as possible to the group. It is clear that this spans across all of Warrington and potentially further. Practitioners should be aware of this WhatsApp group and use their professional judgement to enact appropriate action should a child they are working with has access to this group. Where appropriate we encourage practitioners to support parents to check phones to ensure children are not included in this group chat.

Warrington Christmas Appeal Nominations Now Open!
The Warrington Christmas Appeal is back for December 2024, and we have repositioned referrals as nominations (it just sounded kinder). We are really trying to make sure that the gifts end up in the households that really need them, so have worked hard adapting the system to ask for more detail and a bit more accountability.
If you would like to nominate a family that you are working with and providing support to, complete the form on the link below and register your organisation as a nominator. We would like as few registrations as possible (but don't worry, many people can use the same login) for example Westbrook Old Hall School would have one login but all the teachers/staff can use it.

Pan Cheshire Child Death Overview Panel
Following a very sad, tragic and preventable incident last weekend when children had got into difficulty in open water: Northumberland Fire and Rescue Service issued this message to remind the public that:
“The water may look calm on the surface, but there can be strong undercurrents that could pull even a strong swimmer under the water.
“And even when the weather feels very hot, the water may feel warm on the surface, but just a few feet below the surface it can be icy cold – affecting the stamina and strength of even strong swimmers.
“If you are with someone who gets into difficulty, call emergency services for help. If you can, use an object to try and reach for them, but don’t put yourself in danger by entering the water.”
Please share the Summer Water Safety Poster with your teams and print and display in public areas.

Please see the notice below from Alder Hey Children's Hospital regarding Shein Tattoo Kits
An issue has been raised via safeguarding supervision today with CAMHS.
A practitioner has shared that a young person aged 13 managed to purchase a tattoo kit from Shein for £5 and now has a permanent tattoo on her wrist. Parents have sought medical attention and to check that it hadn’t become infected etc.
The CAMHS practitioner has asked the child’s mother to report this to Shein.
There are a number of kits on sale via the Shein website. Further googling shows cheap tattoo kits are available from the likes of Ali Express also.
Alder Hey Safeguarding Duty Team are aware and will share with relevant teams such as emergency departement colleagues to watch out if they see children and young people coming through the emergency department with tattoo related injuries/wounds/infections.
Please share this message with education, social care colleagues, safeguading partnerships and NHS England.

Please find attached the new merged referral from for non-police referrals.

Please delete any old copies of the referral forms and going forward please use this new merged form.

New MARAC Referral Form
Please find attached the new merged referral from for non-police referrals. Previously 3 documents were used (Referral form, Merit and Professional Judgement form) and this has sometimes caused confusion when submitting a referral. These 3 documents have now been marged and added instructions prior to each section which hopefully make the process easier to follow.
Please delete any old copies of the referral forms and going forward please use this new merged form.
Raises Voices of Victims and Survivors of Domestic Abuse
The Domestic Abuse Commissioner is delighted to launch VOICES today, her virtual platform for victims and survivors to influence change to improve the lives of others subjected to domestic abuse.
From today, victims and survivors, as well as friends and family bereaved by domestic abuse, can sign up to receive the VOICES email newsletter, which will include opportunities for victims and survivors to share their experiences, as well as providing relevant updates on the work of the domestic abuse sector, government and academics.
The Commissioner is also inviting victims and survivors to share their views in a survey on their experiences with the police.
Please share this announcement with your networks using this graphic. If you work directly with people subject to domestic abuse, there is an A4 flyer aimed at victims and survivors that you can print off and put up in your building, or share digitally with clients.
