The Engagement and Communication Sub-Group supports the Gwent Safeguarding Board and the Violence Against Women Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence Board (VAWDASV) by delivering on the statutory function to raise awareness of safeguarding issues across the region. This includes maintaining strategic oversight of the Gwent Safeguarding Website (incorporating VAWDASV). The group also exists to encourage creation of engagement and participation opportunities for children and young people, adults at risk, practitioners and members of the public, across the partnership. At least once a year, Safeguarding Boards must give children or adults the opportunity to participate in one or more of the safeguarding boards events.
