Welcome to Durham Safeguarding Children Partnership

The Durham Safeguarding Children Partnership, known as the DSCP, supports a wide range of organisations to coordinate Early Help and safeguarding services across County Durham. By working together organisations are better able to identify and respond to the needs of children and young people. The DSCP fulfils a wide range of responsibilities to support safeguarding activity in County Durham, some of these are legal responsibilities and others are local arrangements agreed by the partnership. Find out more about us.
