Dorset Safeguarding Children Partnership

In July 2024, the decision was made to separate the Pan-Dorset Safeguarding Children’s Partnership into two partnerships; one covering the Dorset Council area and the other covering the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole (BCP) area.

Each Safeguarding Children Partnership has a statutory responsibility as set out in the Working Together to Safeguard Children guidance (2023) for leadership and multi-agency co-ordination of “arrangements to work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children”.

The website has been re-structured into sections for each Safeguarding Children Partnership. For information from the Dorset Safeguarding Children Partnership please click here. For information from the BCP Safeguarding Children Partnership please click here.

There is some activity that will remain as Pan-Dorset and this includes the multi-agency child safeguarding training offer, our core safeguarding policies and procedures based on national guidance and our child death review process. For information on the Pan-Dorset activity please click here.
