Safeguarding Training for Risk Outside the Home

The way we safeguard young people needs to keep up with the ever-evolving world we live in.
That’s why our training is based on the merger between current practice and cutting edge academic theory. Over 7,500 cross-sector service managers and practitioners have benefitted from our training. Read their feedback.

Our staff are practitioners with frontline experience.
We know the parameters you have to operate in, so we work within these to create actionable and practical steps. Our training empowers you to focus on safeguarding the children and families you support. If you need to make internal changes, we can support you with an external review to gain buy-in from stakeholders.

Risk looks different in different places.
We take the time to understand your needs and craft a bespoke training package, specific to your unique context. By identifying opportunity and development areas, we create a strategically aligned support model. Discover our Wraparound Package for training that’s uniquely tailored for you.
