Support for local councils and their partners with responsibility for safeguarding vulnerable adults is available from the Improvement and Development Agency for local government (IDeA).
Using the skills and expertise of officers, councillors and partners in the social care sector, the IDeA is offering:
• peer review of local adult safeguarding arrangements
• training and briefings for councillors and lead members
• a pool of accredited peers and sector specialists to deliver customised support to councils and their partners
• an online community of safeguarding networks to share knowledge and best practice
• national conferences.
The programme of support will be delivered in partnership with the Local Government Association, the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services, and the Social Care Institute for Excellence.
