Working Together 2026

In May and June 2026, safeguarding partnerships across the Peninsula, led by the Devon Safeguarding Children Partnership, delivered a series of bite-sized briefings to support practitioners in understanding the changes introduced through Working Together to Safeguard Children 2026.

Following these sessions, a Working Together 2026 Bitesize Briefing Resource Booklet was developed. The booklet includes the presentation slides used during the briefings, along with an infographic highlighting the key changes and messages from the updated guidance.

A recording of one of the briefing sessions is also available to view.
