I found the training great, very informative and well delivered by Victoria, she spoke clearly and gave everyone time to engage if they wanted. Great to have access to the delegate pack – lots of support offered! – Attendee 2024
Safeguarding is a very important topic within any community project. Befriending Networks recommends seeking certified courses and resources to best support and protect vulnerable groups. This introductory course was created due to demand from the network, which asked for information specific to befriending. Introduction to Safeguarding has been designed to provide support and overarching guidance.
All attendees will gain access to the course delegate pack, where the Befriending Networks safeguarding booklet and additional support materials can be located. This includes a series of tutorial videos, members’ examples of policies and procedures and the signposting of a series of accredited courses. Attendees are invited to submit their safeguarding policy and procedure for a complementary audit to best practice.
