More information
The primary body overseeing these efforts is the Durham Safeguarding Children Partnership (DSCP), which aims to ensure the safety and well-being of children and young people across the county.
County Durham also has a dedicated framework for safeguarding adults at-risk of abuse, neglect or exploitation. This is managed by the Durham Safeguarding Adults Partnership (DSAP), a statutory body established under the Care Act 2014. The DSAP brings together local authorities, health services, police, housing and voluntary organisations to protect vulnerable adults and promote their well-being.
Nearby regions such as Sunderland, Newcastle and Northumberland have their own designated safeguarding training pages.

“Covered key areas which are especially good to know if no prior knowledge of safeguarding is had. The trainer was very knowledgeable and resources/videos were very helpful/educational.”
