Frequently asked questions
Safeguarding adults means protecting a person’s right to live in safety, free from abuse and neglect, especially those who are vulnerable due to age, disability, or illness.
Adults who may need safeguarding include those with physical or mental disabilities, elderly individuals, or anyone unable to protect themselves from harm or exploitation.
Signs can include unexplained injuries, changes in behavior, poor hygiene, fearfulness, or withdrawal from social situations.
If you suspect abuse, report it to your safeguarding lead, manager, or local authority immediately. It's important not to investigate yourself—just report your concerns.
