Did you know the Safeguarding Duty Hub supports staff across the Trust with safeguarding advice, consultation, information sharing, and decision-making for both children and adults?
Over the last year, the Hub managed more than 5,600 contacts, with around 75 per cent safely supported through advice, partnership working, and early intervention without needing escalation to statutory safeguarding services — helping staff navigate concerns quickly, proportionately, and effectively.
The Hub can support with:
✔ Safeguarding concerns for adults or children
✔ Domestic abuse and neglect concerns
✔ Information sharing and professional curiosity
✔ Advice around thresholds and referrals
✔ Multi-agency safeguarding processes and escalation routes
If you are unsure, worried, or just want to think something through — contact the Hub early for advice and support.
