Appendix A: Local Safeguarding Children Boards

The LSCB is the key statutory mechanism for agreeing how the relevant organisations in each local area will co-operate to safeguard and promote the welfare of children in that locality and for ensuring the effectiveness of what they do.

The core objectives of the LSCB are set out in s14 (1) of the Children Act 2004.  The following diagram reflects the LSCB objectives and functions.
