The Safeguarding Adults Board is a multi-agency partnership comprising statutory, independent and charitable organisations with a stakeholder interest in safeguarding adults at risk.
SAB's have a key role in bringing together organisations to ensure that they work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of adults.
Safeguarding Adult Reviews (SARs) are held when an adult with care and support needs dies, or suffers significant harm, as a result of abuse and neglect, and there are concerns that partner agencies could have worked together more effectively to protect the adult.
The SAB should seek assurance of the effectiveness of safeguarding activity and that safeguarding practice is continuously improving and enhancing the quality of life for adults with care and support needs and carers in its area, in line with ‘Making safeguarding personal’. This should address issues of quality as well as quantity, particularly from the perspective of those who have experienced safeguarding services. (SCIE)
There are currently six subgroups which meet at least quarterly. Membership of each subgroup is multi-agency and each subgroup has 'Terms of Reference' which outline the aims and objectives of each subgroup and which are reviewed regularly.
The multi-agency training provided by Hillingdon SAB offers access to a broad range of learning opportunities with the common aim of improving adults safety and well-being. It is accessible to all practitioners who are working in organisations which are members of the Hillingdon SAB.
