The Child Safeguarding Practice Review Panel has published a thematic analysis examining multi-agency responses to Child Neglect in cases of serious harm or death in England.

The paper draws on a literature review, and analysis of 100 rapid reviews and 34 child safeguarding practice reviews. It explores the prevalence and impact of neglect; how definitional ambiguity delays interventions and contributes to fragmented responses; systemic barriers; the relationship between poverty and neglect; and children’s lived experiences.
