Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility
E-Briefing Notes
December 2012
Welcome to the latest edition of the Suffolk LSCB E-Briefing.
One of our strategic objectives is that we communicate and engage in a variety of ways to support professionals in their work and to influence the wider community in the part they can play in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.
