Hosted by Ann Craft Trust, Safeguarding Adults Week is an opportunity for organisations to highlight key safeguarding issues, start conversations and raise awareness of safeguarding best practices.
Free seminars, workshops and training will focus on a different theme each day.
On our website we have films, leaflets and posters for you to share with your team, people using your services, family and friends.
We offer free talks for community groups about keeping safe from abuse and we are always happy to bring our information stand to your events.
Thank you to everyone who entered our competition, and to those of you who voted.
We are pleased to announce that the winner is Mark Harrison who submitted this design. The runners up are William Chivers and Ruth Goldman.
We are now designing a logo incorporating their ideas and the feedback from our survey.
