OUR VISION
The Richmond & Wandsworth Safeguarding Adults Board (SAB) commit to the fundamental principle that all citizens of Richmond
and Wandsworth Boroughs (irrespective of age, race, gender, culture, religion, physical or mental ill health; disability or sexual
orientation) have a fundamental right to live an independent life free from harm and abuse.
All agencies will work together and commit to ensuring that Safeguarding is Everybody’s Business. This will be done by
• Raising awareness about abuse.
• Preventing abuse from happening wherever possible.
• Reporting and responding to concerns and incidents of harm and abuse.
• Sharing information and intelligence to reduce and remove risk.
• Share and utilise learning from safeguarding enquiries and reviews to develop practice and preventive strategies
• Embed a “Making Safeguarding Personal” approach across the partnership which ensures people are involved and in control
of all safeguarding activities.
