Local Safeguarding Children Partnership

Local Safeguarding Children Partnership for Hammersmith & Fulham.

In 2012, Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea and Westminster, joined together to create the Tri-Borough Local Safeguarding Children’s Board; becoming the three borough Local Safeguarding Children Partnership (LSCP) in 2019. The three borough LSCP arrangement ended on 31 March 2021.

On April 1 2021 Hammersmith & Fulham Council formed a new sovereign Local Safeguarding Children Partnership in order to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children and young people in the borough.
