Safeguarding Adults Sub-Groups

The SAB has four sub-groups which support the development of specific areas in preventing and responding to the abuse of adults at risk. In addition there may be occasions the SAB will establish specific, time-limited task and finish groups to report on particular topics according to the work required.

The four subgroups are:

  • Safeguarding Adults Prevention and Learning Subgroup

  • Multi Agency SAB Quality Assurance Subgroup
  • Coordinate and support the development of safeguarding adults work in Haringey with particular emphasis on developing best practice in safeguarding adults work and learning from experience.

  • Safeguarding Adults Reviews Subgroup: to consider referrals of any case which may meet the statutory criteria and to make decisions on this basis; to make arrangements for and to oversee all SAR's; to ensure recommendations are made, messages are disseminated and that lessons are learned.
