Welcome to the Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership Procedures Manual
As of 1 April 2025, Cumbria Safeguarding Children Partnership has been replaced by two new Multi-Agency Safeguarding Arrangements:
- Cumberland Safeguarding Children Partnership will cover the footprint of Cumberland Council;
- Westmorland and Furness Safeguarding Children Partnership will cover the footprint of Westmorland and Furness Council.
However, during a transitional period, the multi-agency procedures and guidance included within this tri.x Manual will remain Cumbria wide.
New Manuals, specifically for Cumberland or Westmorland & Furness, will be launched in February 2026. In the meantime, please continue to use the multi-agency procedures and guidance within this Manual.
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@cumbria.gov.uk.
