| Annotation | Researchers at the Tizard Centre at the University of Kent used information from Kent and Medway Councils' records of adult protection alerts, which are among the most detailed of any local authorities in England, to carry out a detailed analysis of adult protection referrals from 1998 to 2005. The project, which was funded by the Nuffield Foundation, found a link between location or setting, perpetrator and type of abuse. This report considers the characteristics of adult protection alerts, and alerts relating to particular client groups - people with learning difficulties and older people. (RH). |
