Working Together to Keep Children Safe

Every Child Deserves a Life Free from Fear and Harm

Welcome to Brighton & Hove Safeguarding Children Partnership’s Website.

Arrangements for how to safeguard children in England have changed. Brighton & Hove Local Safeguarding Children Boards (LSCB) has been replaced by the Brighton & Hove Safeguarding Children Partnership (BHSCP) – These arrangements came into effect in September 2019. BHSCP continues to be independently chaired and three ‘key safeguarding partners’ – the Local Authority, NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board (ICB) , and Sussex Police now collectively hold statutory responsibilities for safeguarding.

Please note that we are in the process of updating this website to reflect the Working Together 2023 changes.
