Welcome to the Cumberland Safeguarding Children Partnership Procedures Manual

Although within Working Together to Safeguard Children Guidance children in care are referred to as "Looked After Children", in Cumberland, after consultation with children in care in our area, these children are referred to as "Cared For Children."

Please see 'Using this Manual' for details about the way this manual works.

If you have any comments or suggestions regarding changes to this manual, please send them to CSCP@cumberland.gov.uk.
