The Local Safeguarding Adults Boards in Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton are proud to support National Safeguarding Adults Week, which runs from Monday 18th to Friday 22nd November 2024.
We are working with our partner organisations and local communities to promote National Safeguarding Adults Week to raise awareness of a range of important issues relating to the abuse or neglect of adults with care and support needs.
Every day of this working week, we will be shining a spotlight on a specific theme. In addition, there are Lunch and Learn sessions being offered to all our partners across all four areas. These can be accessed from the links below or found on each Board’s individual webpages.
