Why is a public protection approach important?<\/h3>\n

Although legislation and national and local agency structures separate out the strands of work\u00a0 which encompass what we call “public protection” in reality people rarely fit neatly into one category or the other.<\/p>\n

Protection across the lifespan bridges all sectors of our communities and the services provided by both the public sector and partners. Some people may have contact with several service areas at once, or at different times. Some\u00a0 may be both at risk of harm and a risk to others. Others will have members of their household or visitors to the household who present a risk or are at risk of harm. Some people will pose a risk to themselves and some may be unaware that they are at risk.<\/p>\n

Public Protection governance arrangements are in place throughout Forth Valley to provide oversight of multi-agency partnerships involved in protecting people.<\/p>\n

Practitioners and managers have knowledge and skill in particular areas however everyone has a role in protecting children and adults from harm.\u00a0 In order to protect the safety and wellbeing of those who may be at risk it is vitally important for everyone \u00a0to work together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
