Multi-Agency Training
Multi-agency training is co-developed with partners and adults with lived experience to help practitioners, care providers and volunteers to understand their roles, responsibilities and safeguarding procedures; which creates a shared understanding of assessment and decision making practices. Training can be face to face, online or a combination of both.
The training resources help us to ensure we promote that safeguarding is everyone’s business.

The title of the conference was chosen to emphasise the importance of adult safeguarding being done ‘with’ and not ‘to’ people – and to ensure that people with care and support needs, and carers are seen as experts in their own lives.

Our work with RiPfA
In 2018 we teamed up with RiPfA on a project to look at how North Lincolnshire Safeguarding Adults Board can move towards an Appreciative Inquiry approach of working and learning.
Partners were encouraged to share good safeguarding practice and positive learning through case studies, we also visited service users and community forums to gain their insight and experiences of safeguarding.
RiPfA attended the 2018 Annual Conference and worked with delegates to identify ‘What Success Would Look Like’.
All of the case studies, interviews, workshops, visual interpretations and discussions have culminated in three reports (staff briefing, executive summary and the full report) and a number of recommendations which we included in our Strategic Plan 2019 – 2022.
What next?…
The Safeguarding Adults Board Prevention & Proportionality group have produced an Appreciative Inquiry prompt to promote the continuation of good practice in safeguarding adults in North Lincolnshire.
- Appreciative Inquiry – guide to good practice.
- Capacity and Consent -North Lincolnshire Council Presentation
- Making Safeguarding Personal -Humberside Fire & Rescue Presentation
