VCF works in partnership with Local Safeguarding Children Boards to engage local communities. We believe that effective community involvement within the LSCB framework will ensure that the voice of the community is heard nationally at strategic and policy decision-making levels.

The safeguarding children community partnership model has been pioneered in London by the Victoria Climbié Foundation in collaboration with Harrow and Brent Safeguarding Children Boards.  This is a model for community consultation, engagement and collaboration to achieve the LSCB’s community partnership objectives. It has been piloted in the Pan London project.
