Potential partners will need to demonstrate that they have extensive experience of:

• Developing clinical guidelines, specifically around the subject matter of safeguarding children and child protection and the different signs of child sexual abuse.
• Conducting robust systematic reviews alongside experts in the field, including paediatric child protection experts.
• Bringing together a wide range of experts from the clinical, academic and charity sector to collate and analyse research, and use evidence and insights to inform policy, training and practice.
• Developing clinical recommendations on a consensus basis developed with multidisciplinary child protection experts and through extensive consultation with stakeholders. The partner will need to have extensive and in-depth knowledge of the current guidance and the history of its development, access to new evidence and data on the subject matter, links to senior clinicians who will provide their input and time for no fee, links with and ability to work closely with key stakeholders and experts in the field.
