Welcome to the main website for North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee.
North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee is a strategic partnership involving the main statutory and voluntary organisations in the area and its purpose is to ensure that local agencies work together to protect children from harm and keep them safe.
Partners include North Ayrshire Council, NHS Ayrshire & Arran, Strathclyde Police, Scottish Children’s Reporter Administration, Children’s Panel, Procurator Fiscal, Alcohol & Drug Partnership and the Voluntary Sector.
Whether you work with children and families in North Ayrshire, are a parent/carer, or a member of the public, you have an important role to play in protecting children and North Ayrshire Child Protection Committee can support you in this.
By using the buttons above you will be able to access information and guidance relevant to your role and area of interest. We regularly review our website content and we have plenty of useful material available to download for your use.
The “What’s New” button above will tell you of the latest developments in child protection, both locally and nationally, and this is updated monthly.
2011 is a very important year for the Child Protection Committee as we are working to implement the revised National Guidance for Child Protection in Scotland which was published in December 2010. Please keep checking our website for updates. National Guidance for Child Protection in Scotland
