Safeguarding Children and Young People. The RCGP/NSPCC Safeguarding Children Toolkit for General practice Royal College of General Practitioners Child Safeguarding Toolkit Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) FGM is a form of child abuse and violence against women and girls, and therefore should be dealt with as part of existing child and adult protection structures, policies and procedures. Further details regarding FGM can be found in the Government Multi-Agency Practice Guidelines for FGM. Child Sexual Exploitation Information may be shared under this agreement for the following purposes: • To facilitate best practice to provide a more integrated and coordinated approach to identified victims of Child Sexual Exploitation • To inform multi agency actions to prevent abuse occurring, disrupt perpetrator activity and secure evidence to support prosecutions, this may involve sharing intelligence gathered through the course of routine work, for example if a cohort of young people or vulnerable adults are found to have similar sexually transmitted infections or professionals involved are concerned about relationships in an area that could be potentially coercive. In adopting this partnership approach partners will work together to identify, support and safeguard children and young people and vulnerable adults who are vulnerable to sexual exploitation from those who are intent on abusing them.
