If you report adult abuse to Sheffield Adult Social Service they will:

  • Listen to you
  • Take all concerns seriously
  • Treat the information you give them in the strictest confidence
  • Take steps to help to stop the abuse
  • Keep you informed and involved at each stage of the safeguarding adult’s procedure

In Sheffield we have an Safeguarding Partnership which is made up of a range of organisations including Sheffield City Council, NHS, police and representatives from the voluntary sector.

These organisations work closely together to make sure that all cases of suspected abuse are investigated fully and that vulnerable adults are protected from harm.
