Chris Brabbs is a highly experienced consultant and the Director of Chris Brabbs Consultancy Limited, specializing in safeguarding practices within social care. With a robust background as a former director of social services, Chris brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the field, particularly in the areas of Safeguarding Adult Reviews (SARs) and Domestic Homicide Reviews (DHRs). His role as an independent chair and overview report author is pivotal in ensuring that lessons are learned from tragic incidents, ultimately enhancing the safety and well-being of vulnerable populations.
One of Chris's key projects involved the SAR concerning the death of a 20-year-old young woman who had a complex history of being looked after, mental health challenges, and experiences of trafficking. This case highlighted critical issues surrounding transition arrangements for young individuals facing sexual exploitation as they age out of care. Chris's detailed analysis and recommendations focused on improving engagement strategies with mental health services, ensuring that support systems are robust and responsive during these crucial transition periods.
Chris's extensive skills in presentation, report writing, and independent investigations enable him to effectively communicate findings and drive organizational development within public sector frameworks. His expertise in policy formulation, performance management, and stakeholder engagement further positions him as a leader in change management initiatives aimed at enhancing social care services. Through his consultancy, Chris is committed to fostering a culture of continuous improvement, ensuring that safeguarding practices evolve in line with emerging challenges and best practices in the sector.
