Government to mandate an NHS-wide alert if a child under 10 presents twice in 12 months with suspicious or non-age-appropriate injuries. This alert should trigger an immediate independent skin check and the alert should remain visible to all GPs and hospitals, regardless of where the child is seen.

When the "rule of two" (when a child has presented with suspicious injuries twice in 12 months) is breached, we request that relevant social workers and agencies are granted secure, shared access to these records to ensure a unified safeguarding response. We must prevent children from falling through gaps by ensuring all professionals have the same information.
