Multi Agency Risk Management (MARM) Guidance

information

This guidance was formally known as ‘What to do if it is not Safeguarding?’

This document is intended to empower all agencies (in their management of risk) to feel confident to instigate multi-agency risk management meetings. This is in relation to people with complex needs or circumstances who do not require or meet the criteria for a local authority led adult safeguarding enquiry under Section 42 the Care Act (2014).
