About the Board

The Buckinghamshire Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults Board (BSVAB) is a group of statutory, private, voluntary, and independent organisations across Buckinghamshire who work together to empower and protect some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

Our purpose is to raise awareness that some people may be at particular risk of mistreatment, exploitation or abuse and, once alerted, work with others to protect them from harm and safeguard their interests. We provide a network of advice and systems of support to any member of the public and staff working within organisations, so that people live safe and secure lives.
