Im Safeguarding

The Isle of Man Safeguarding Board was established under the Safeguarding Board Act 2018. The Board is a Partnership of the relevant departments and agencies and its purpose is to ensure they work effectively together to protect children and vulnerable adults from abuse and neglect. The legislation places statutory duties on the relevant safeguarding bodies to co-operate and the Independent Chair of the Board has the key role to hold those agencies to account for improvements in safeguarding practice.
