Safeguarding

10:00 - 14:00
Our safeguarding course is designed for anyone working with children, adults, or both.
You'll learn to recognise the types of harm a person may encounter (4 for children, and 10 for adults), what your safeguarding responsibilities are, and how to respond to concerns.
This training is equivalent to 'level 2 safeguarding'.
Safeguarding Refresher
Wednesday 12th April
Monday 16th April
10:00 - 12:00
This two-hour refresher course is ideal for those who have taken safeguarding training WITH US in the last two years.
The idea of this training is that it extends the time between your full-length courses.
For example, you take the DSSS 4-hour course in 2021, the refresher in 2023, then you don't need to complete the full-length course again until 2025.
Upon booking we will ask you to confirm the date of your last safeguarding training.
This training is equivalent to 'level 1 safeguarding'.
