Threshold Guidance for Safeguarding Adults at Risk

Welcome to Safeguarding Calderdale

A Local Safeguarding Partnership’s primary focus must be the safety, protection and promotion of the welfare of all children, young people and adults at risk. Safeguarding is about promoting the rights and welfare of all people but also protecting the most vulnerable children, young people and adults from harm. Each and every one of us has a duty to safeguard, protect and promote the welfare of others. Safeguarding is everyone’s business.
