Who We Are
Safeguarding for the City of Manchester
The Manchester Safeguarding Partnership is made up of organisations that work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of adults, children, young people and their families across the city of Manchester.
This website brings together information for the wider our Manchester community – adults, children, young people and their families; the practitioners and volunteers who work with them; and the residents and businesses who want to help us achieve our aims.
Our Vision
Is to ensure best safeguarding practice through a multi-agency approach. We work with our partners and the public, to act as a hub for safeguarding in Manchester.
All training is delivered multi-agency, to ensure our approach. Alongside the idea that information sharing and working together is the key to effective safeguarding.
