Progress has been least noted in develop an effective strategy for health and public relations and community education, welfare agencies engaged with allegations of with very few agencies developing shortened abuse and neglect of adults.

Sumner’s study strategic partnerships to take forward the gives a baseline for future analysis. specific elements of the No Secrets guidance The second insightful and provocative by 31 October 2001.
