The North Lincolnshire Safeguarding Adults Board aims to ensure that safeguarding arrangements in North Lincolnshire work effectively so that adults at risk are able to live their lives free from harm and exploitation.
The training provided by the Safeguarding Adults Board supports practitioners in maintaining and developing their core skills for working with adults with care and support needs so that they remain in their own homes, families, jobs and communities

The North Lincolnshire Safeguarding Adults Board Conference 2025 took place on Wednesday 5 February 2025, at The Baths Hall in Scunthorpe. The conference was an excellent opportunity to acknowledge the work across the partnership and to provide an opportunity for people across the workforce to consider the impact of Making Safeguarding Personal and to reflect on the importance of listening to the views of adults with lived experience.
Attendees also heard from Karl Mason, our keynote speaker, who provided his keynote on the topic of discriminatory abuse and from local agency representatives who highlighted the importance of utilising professional curiosity in practice.
