Safeguarding Adults and Children

Safeguarding Boards

Regional Safeguarding Children and Adults Boards (opens in a new tab) were established as per part 7 of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014, and have replaced Local Safeguarding Children Boards.

The aim of all CYSUR & CWMPAS activity is to improve outcomes for adults at risk, children, young people and their families.
