Local Safeguarding Children Board
 |
Area Child Protection Committees (ACPCs) have been replaced by Local Safeguarding Children Boards from April 2006.
The Children Act 2004 placed a new duty on a wide range of organisations to safeguard and promote the welfare of children by working together in partnership and co-operation.
To ensure this happens, each Children’s Services Authority has established a Local Safeguarding Children Board.
Senior managers from a number of organisations that work with children in Leicestershire, Leicester and Rutland are members of the board.
