Although safeguarding is everybody’s business and it’s true that we all have a responsibility to help safeguard children and adults at risk, the most effective way to ensure that the church is fulfilling its safeguarding responsibilities and following the safeguarding policy is to have a named SAFEGUARDING COORDINATOR.
The Safeguarding Panel is running a 2.5 hour session focussing on the role of a safeguarding coordinator and the practical elements a local church should put in place to ensure that they are effectively safeguarding vulnerable groups.
It will include policy, safer recruitment and DBS and record keeping. There will not be a focus on the signs and symptoms of abuse and neglect. This is covered in more detail in the level 1 and 2 training sessions.
