Safeguarding Adults Week 17th - 21st November 2025

Safeguarding Adults Week 2025 – Prevention: Act Before Abuse

17th–21st November

This November, Slough Safeguarding Partnership will take part in Safeguarding Adults Week 2025, a national initiative led by the Ann Craft Trust. The theme this year is Prevention – Act Before Abuse, encouraging everyone to recognise the signs of abuse and take action early to protect adults at risk.

Throughout the week, there will be a series of free online seminars (link below) exploring key safeguarding topics including:

Learnings from gambling in sport
Preventing abuse: Everyone Everywhere
Preventing forced marriage
Creating safer, empowering environments
A holistic approach to prevention in sport

Locally, the Slough Safeguarding Partnership will host a stall at The Curve on Thursday 20th November, 9am–1pm, where residents can find information, advice, and support on safeguarding adults in our community.

There will also be a dedicated training session for professionals – What to do if an adult needs help – offering practical guidance for those working with adults and families in Slough.

Join us in supporting a culture of safety and respect where everyone can live free from abuse and neglect.
Together, we can make Slough a safer place for all adults.
