about usSunderland’s Safeguarding Adults Partnership Board

Sunderland's original procedures was established in 1997, in response to recommendation by the Association for the Directors of Social Services (ADSS), for the development of local multi-agency policy and procedures to protect vulnerable adults from abuse.

In 2007 Sunderland launched their new Safeguarding Adults Procedural Framework since that time much good work has been done to strive to keep Sunderland at the forefront of good practice in this area, contributing to the development of national guidance as well the development of good practice and procedures in other local authorities. The Procedural Framework as well as other areas of practice such as training and raising public awareness have been acknowledged as examples of good practice by the Social Services Inspectorate and national organisations such as Action on Elder Abuse. Sunderland was chosen in 2004 as one of the best practice sites, in Safeguarding Adults in England.
