WILTSHIRE Council is to hold a conference to explore the issues involved in the protection of vulnerable adults in the county.

The Whose Risk is it Anyway conference has been organised by the Institute of Ideas and will be chaired by Claire Fox, a regular panellist on BBC Radio 4’s Moral Maze programme, and will follow the show’s format.

The panel will debate and discuss the issues that arise for those working with adults whose circumstances leave them at risk of abuse. The conference will be held at Chippenham Town Hall on March 2 from 12noon to 5pm.
