About us

The City of York Safeguarding Adults Board (CYSAB) is a statutory and multi-agency partnership that leads the strategic development of safeguarding adults work across York. As specified in the Care Act, the CYSAB includes three core statutory members, that is, the City of York Council, NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board, and North Yorkshire Police Authority. Our membership is also made up of nominated lead representatives from a wide range of non-core partner agencies, who actively contribute to the work of the Board.

The Board meets quarterley and has a number of subgroups that support its work:

  • Quality and Assurance group
  • Safeguarding Adults Review group
  • Learning and Development group

The Board works with organisations across the city to ensure that they have effective safeguarding policies and procedures in place and work together in the best way possible to protect adults with care and support needs.
