Safeguarding Online Training (CAG network members only)

The CAG Project recognises the importance of safeguarding and our shared responsibility to protect children and vulnerable adults from harm. To help groups feel confident in identifying and responding to any issues that may arise, we are working with Ade Murphy from Creating Solutions to offer online safeguarding training.

Safeguarding training is vital for community groups as it equips members with the skills to recognise and address signs of abuse or neglect, promoting early intervention and protection for vulnerable individuals. It also fosters a culture of vigilance and accountability within the group, enhancing trust and solidarity among members. It ensures compliance with legal requirements, providing practical guidance on responding to concerns effectively.

Ade Murphy has been delivering Safeguarding Training for more than 30 years. As Safeguarding Lead for the Youth and Community Service in North Somerset, Ade delivered training for Youth Workers and Community organisations across the area. As the Training and Staff Development Manager for a drugs and alcohol agency, he continued as Safeguarding lead for the organisation, whilst delivering annual training for staff, volunteers and trustees. As a freelance trainer he continues to deliver to Village Hall trustees and community groups across Somerset and works with individual groups to support and develop their safeguarding policies and practice.

In this session you will have the opportunity to work with Ade and other CAG groups to understand your safeguarding responsibilities, use case studies to explore a range of potential safeguarding scenarios, and build on your confidence and knowledge in this area.

This free course is exclusively available to members of CAG Devon and CAG Somerset only.   Please register here: Sign up – CAG Safeguarding Training session – Zoom (tickettailor.com)
