Learning Briefs
The ERSAB website has 21 different learning briefs which are used as a mechanism for sharing the learning from safeguarding cases, to help support individuals and organisations to improve governance, practice and or guidance.
These are suitable for staff and professionals who work with adults and young people at risk of harm and should be reflected on and used as part of Safeguarding level 3 professional development.
The latest ones relate to a domestic abuse neglect case involving a husband and wife and a different case involving a young person with care and support needs and a person in a position of trust.
To see more detail on these learning briefs and many more please see the click on the link below.

Hull and East Riding Safeguarding Adults Week
November 2023 saw partners from across Hull and East Riding come together to develop an extensive programme of learning events, seminars and interactive sessions which all underpinned this year’s theme - safeguarding is everybody’s business.
Spurred on by the success of Safeguarding Adult’s Week 2022, safeguarding partners worked to extend the range of topics being covered this year.
The weeklong programme saw 12 sessions presented to professionals and members of the public.
Covering topics such as Safeguarding and the voluntary community and social enterprise sector, transitions and suicide, safeguarding vulnerable dependent drinkers, learning from domestic homicide reviews and much more. The week was also supported by the City Health Care Partnership (CHCP) Health Bus in the community. The sessions were designed to stimulate discussion, spark innovation and share best practice.
Look out for the next safeguarding week in June 2024.
What do we do to keep adults safe?
Keeping adults’ safe means protecting their right to live safely, free from abuse, harm or neglect. Here in the East Riding there is a team of people dedicated to keeping adults safe. This is the Safeguarding Adults Team which is responsible for responding to any day to day concerns raised by the public, or care professionals, about the safety and wellbeing of a vulnerable adult in the East Riding. The team is part of the East Riding of Yorkshire Council.
How to report a concern
The preferred method of reporting a safeguarding concern is online via the Safeguarding Adult Board's website at: www.ersab.org.uk
Look for the red button at the top right of each page on the ERSAB website
