One Vision Housing support Safeguarding Adults Week 2022
Published: 5/11/2022
This week One Vision Housing are joining a nationwide campaign to help raise awareness of adult safeguarding and keep its communities safe.
The annual awareness week runs from the 21st to 27th of November in 2022 and is hosted by Ann Craft Trust, a leading UK support organisation for safeguarding adults and young people at risk.
At One Vision Housing we believe that every customer has the right to live safely, free from abuse and neglect, and recognise the impact this can have on victims, families, and the wider community.
Through our Independent Living Team, we provide specialist support and advice to those experiencing issues surrounding adult safeguarding.
So, what is adult safeguarding? Our Independent Living Team provide an insight in a series of videos:
