About MSCB

The Manchester Safeguarding Children Board was established in 2006 following the publication of Working Together to Safeguard Children 2006 and replaced the Area Child Protection Committee (ACPC). The remit of the ACPC was expanded to include the wider area of safeguarding as oppose to statutory child protection.

The Board is made up of key partner organisations which include Statutory and Community, Voluntary and Faith organisations which agrees a business plan to lead on the Stay Safe outcome for Children.

The Board established itself and set about identifying its aims and objectives through the development of serveral subgroups, each developing its main areas of work and key priorities to compliment and support the main priorities of the board. More detail in structure section.
