Information Sharing Guidance
What Is This Guidance For?
The aim of this guidance, and
associated materials, is to support good practice in information
sharing by offering clarity on when and how information can be
shared legally and professionally, in order to achieve improved
outcomes.
This guidance will be especially
useful to support early intervention and preventative work where
decisions about information sharing may be less clear than in
safeguarding or child protection situations.
Who Is This Guidance For?
This guidance is for practitioners who have to make decisions about
sharing personal information on a case-by-case basis, whether they
are:
- working in the public, private or voluntary sectors.
- providing services to children, young people, adults and/or
families.
- working as an employee, a contractor or a volunteer.
This includes front-line staff working
in health, education, schools, social care, youth work, early
years, family support, offending and criminal justice, police,
advisory and support services, and culture and leisure.
This guidance is also for managers and
advisors who support these practitioners in their decision making
and for others with responsibility for information governance.
