This HM Government advice document outlines the importance of sharing information about children, young people and their families in order to safeguard children. It should be read alongside the statutory guidance Working Together to Safeguard Children 2023. [
]
The advice document is non-statutory and replaces the HM Government Information Sharing: Advice for practitioners providing safeguarding services to children, young people, parents and carers published in July 2018.
The advice is for:
* all individuals who are directly involved in safeguarding children, including frontline practitioners, managers and senior leaders
* individuals and organisations that work with children, parents, carers and families, in sectors such as social care, education, health, justice and voluntary
The advice document provides useful advice on consent and re-emphasises that GDPR and Data Protection legislation is not a barrier to sharing information where there are safeguarding and child protection concerns and also emphasises that practitioners should be proactive and seek out relevant information
from other practitioners
and agencies or organisations to build an accurate picture of a child and the family’s life.
