Making Safeguarding Personal (MSP)

Developing a safeguarding culture that focuses on the personalised outcomes desired by people with care and support needs who may have been abused is a key operational and strategic goal. SABs, therefore, may want to consider the role they can play in embedding the ‘Making Safeguarding Personal’ approach across agencies by establishing and developing:

  • a broader participation strategy
  • accessible information to support participation of people in safeguarding support
  • a focus on qualitative reporting on outcomes as well as quantitative measures
  • advocacy
  • person-centred approaches to working with risk
  • policies and procedures that are in line with a personalised safeguarding approach
  • strategies to enable practitioners to work in this way, by looking at the skills they need and the support they are getting to enable this shift in culture.
