The Staffordshire Safeguarding Children Board brings together representatives of each of the main agencies and professionals responsible for helping to protect children from abuse and neglect. It is an inter-agency forum for agreeing how the different services and professional groups should co-operate to safeguard children throughout Staffordshire (except Stoke-on-Trent, which has its own Safeguarding Board) and, for making sure that arrangements work effectively in bringing about better outcomes for children.
