About the Event
The first part of the event (9:30-11:20) will be of interest to anyone working or volunteering for a VCS organisation and will:
- challenge stereotypes of who could be at risk
- provide information on accountability
- help you recognise people at risk of abuse or neglect
- advise on who to contact locally when you have concerns about someone’s safety
The second part of this event (11:30- 12:00) will be of interest to local VCS infrastructure and support organisations in particular and will explore the possibilities of developing a VCS Safeguarding Network in each region.
We will also be joined by South West's new local DBS Regional Outreach Advisor, who will explain the new regional approach DBS is taking.
