Safeguarding Adults Week 2023 takes place from Monday 20 – Friday 24 November 2023.

Watch our short animation all about friendships. It talks about what good and bad friendships look like and when children should seek help.

The Threshold guidance is for everyone who works alongside children, young people, their families and carers in Telford. It is how we work together, share information and ensure that children and their families remain our main focus and that we provide effective support to them.

These materials have been written for children and young people aged 3-18 living in Telford and Wrekin.
