Neglect

Neglect is one of the key issues that can lead to social care intervention but it can be difficult to  measure its impact on children’s welfare and may go unrecognised.

The following documents provide social workers with information about neglect and Camden's approach to working with neglectful families.

The CSCP multi-agency guidance on neglect provides information on how agencies will work in partnership to manage neglect cases.

Social workers should follow the CSFH neglect procedures when working with neglectful families.
