Welcome to the Lincolnshire SCP Policy and Procedures Manual

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

Following consultation with children and young people, Children's Services in Lincolnshire will refer to Looked After Children as Children in Care. Due to the language used in statutory guidance and legislation, the LSCP Policy and Procedure Manual will continue to use the terminology "Looked After Child".

The LSCP are continuing to work with the Centre of Expertise on Child Sexual Abuse and are proud to be launching the Response Resources and Best Practice Guidance to assist all practitioners in supporting children who are experiencing, or have experienced, sexual harm. Click on the Child Sexual Abuse Resource to find out more about this exciting area of innovation.
