Welcome to the Hammersmith & Fulham Local Safeguarding Children Board.  

Safeguarding children is everyone's responsibility and the purpose of these webpages is to encourage the widest possible participation in the work of the Local Safeguarding Children Board. The LSCB has a broad agenda encompassing the welfare as well as the safety of children and, therefore, its work cuts across a variety of agencies, disciplines and sectors. For this reason, we encourage other relevant services and organisations to make use of these webpages to share information and practice.

Child abuse can take many forms; professionals often categorise abuse as either emotional, physical, sexual or neglect. Only some types of abuse have signs you can see.
