Our commitment is to listen to and empower our communities and support the workforce to keep adults who may have care and support needs in our communities, safe from abuse and neglect. We will do this through:

SSASPB Strategic Plan
Safeguarding Adults Boards have a duty to publish a Strategic Plan which sets out how we will achieve our duties, strategic priorities and functions. It also includes how partner agencies will contribute to this.
Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent Adult Safeguarding Partnership Board (SSASPB) have agreed 3 year priorities to enable longer term pieces of work. We are currently working to develop the 2025-2028 Strategic Plan based on the strategic priorities agreed from April 2025.
