Reminder – Contact with Local Authority – Children’s Social Care

This is a reminder that professionals wishing to make a safeguarding referral, request for information or services, or a notification should contact LBR Children’s Services direct using the on-line portal (link below):

Please do not send referrals, copies, or information sharing requests to the Redbridge Safeguarding Children Partnership (RSCP), which is a multi-agency strategic body that doesn’t commission nor deliver services, or hold case records.  Any case work communication with the RSCP outside of Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews (CSPRs) could represent a data breach and will also potentially cause a delay in response.
