About Safeguarding Adults and Leeds Safeguarding Adults Board

Safeguarding adults is about supporting people with care and support needs to live safe, happy lives free from abuse and neglect.

People with care and support needs may be older people, people with a physical disability, long-term illness, learning disability, mental health condition, drug or alcohol dependency, people who are homeless or carers.

Leeds Safeguarding Adults Board is a group of organisations working together to make sure safeguarding adults happens across the city.

About this competition

A logo is an image or symbol that represents an organisation. Our current logo shows four jigsaw pieces. People have said that it does not show what safeguarding adults is about. So, we'd like people in Leeds to help us design our new logo.

We'd like a logo showing that safeguarding adults is about supporting people with care and support needs to live safe, happy lives free from abuse and neglect. It should be:

• a simple design
• different to our current logo
• colourful
• easy to identify and include our name Leeds Safeguarding Adults Board

Your logo design must be original. It must not copy a logo used by any other organisation.

It is important to consider how your logo design could be viewed by people with a sight impairment, learning disability or other condition.
