Think Family

In April 2023, the Lewisham Safeguarding Adults Board (LSAB) and Lewisham Safeguarding Children Partnership (LSCP) jointly agreed to focus on Think Family as a strategic priority. Learning from Local Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews and Safeguarding Adults Reviews have highlighted the importance of adult and children’s services working collaboratively and taking a joined up, whole family approach.

The development of the Think Family Practice Guidance is designed to help define our Think Family approach and to support practitioners in achieving this.

The Board along with the Lewisham Safeguarding Children's Partnership has also produced a toolkit for professionals Working with Father's and Male Carers Toolkit, along with the toolkit are a Toolkit Checklist and a list of Local Resources which focus on men.

We have also produced a helpful Think Family Poster to support practitioners.

This important area of work will continue on into 2025-26.
