Welcome to our audio guide to Working Together to Safeguard Children 2023. In this audiobook, we present the guidance in a clear, accessible way, so whether you’re on the move, in between meetings, or looking to develop your understanding, you can listen and learn at your own pace.
This audiobook is for anyone working with children or families, teachers, social workers, health professionals, police colleagues, early years staff, volunteers, and leaders across all safeguarding partnerships. If your role involves the life of a child, this guidance is for you. Listening will help you feel more confident about your responsibilities and how we work together to keep children safe.
In Chapter 1, we explore what it really means to share responsibility for safeguarding. You’ll hear about taking a child‑centred and whole‑family approach, building positive relationships with parents and carers, and the importance of strong multi‑agency collaboration, including effective information sharing. This chapter sets the tone for the entire document, and the system it describes.
Listen now to Chapter 1: A Shared Responsibility.”
