Safeguarding

Safeguarding is protecting vulnerable adults or children from abuse or neglect.

When considering safeguarding Buckinghamshire Council’s works in partnership with other organisations such as the NHS, Fire service and the Police.

If you are worried about an adult at risk of harm and not sure what to do, talk it through with the Safeguarding Adults Team.
