Safeguarding Adults Policy and Procedures

The Safeguarding Adults Multi-Agency Policy and Procedures for West and North Yorkshire and York provide the framework for safeguarding adults with care and support needs from abuse and neglect.

Safeguarding is everybody's responsibility and to ensure this, all agencies - council, police, fire and ambulance services, heath organisations, housing providers, independent sector, charitable, voluntary and community groups should refer to these agreed policy and procedures.

A Joint Multi-agency Safeguarding Adults Policy and Procedures website is now available to use by all partner organisations in West Yorkshire, North Yorkshire and City of York. 

You will be able to access the Joint Multi-agency Safeguarding Adults Policy and Procedures via this weblink https://wynyy-bradford.trixonline.co.uk/
