In addition, the members who attend the Partnership's Executive meetings are:

Meetings are held every 8 weeks where strategic partnership issues that affect Enfield’s children, young people and families are discussed. These issues can include our reviews, practice development areas, emerging risks and the work of the partnership’s activity groups.
Enfield Safeguarding Children Partnership oversees the work of 3 activity groups.
Scrutiny of ESCP was completed in 2022 by an Independent Reviewing Agency. The report that was compiled is attached here for you to review.
