Safeguarding Adults Week, 20-25 November 2023

November/December 2023

The National Adult Safeguarding Adults Week 2023 is taking place this week, from Monday 20 to Friday 25 November 2023. The week offers an opportunity for organisations and residents to come together and raise important issues about keeping safe. It is important that the voices of residents are heard and that everyone knows where to go if something doesn’t feel right. This year focuses on how residents can prioritise their own welfare and wellbeing, as well as that of others.  

A Safeguarding Conference Hub is being held in Stratford Library on Wednesday 22 November, 10am to 2pm. A range of professionals will provide information on keeping safe and cost of living support available and partners who will be present include Metropolitan Police, domestic violence support services and Our Newham Money.
