Welcome to Warwickshire County Council

The Warwickshire Multi-Agency Policies and Procedures for the Protection of Vulnerable Adults are currently under review. The review of the policies and procedures are scheduled for 2008-9. Timescales for issuing updated Policy and Procedures will be influenced by the release of the updated No Secrets guidance that is provisionally due for issue by the Department of Health within 2008. Until such time as updated Policy and Procedures are issued by the Warwickshire Safeguarding Adults Board, the Warwickshire Multi-Agency Policy and Procedures for the Protection of Vulnerable Adults (dated February 2006) will continue to be used.
