Flintshire Local Voluntary Council is pleased to offer Safeguarding Group C Training, delivered by Groundwork North Wales.

As part of our commitment to supporting the voluntary and community sector, FLVC is offering this course at a subsidised rate for members.

FLVC Members – £50 per person

Non-members – £75 per person

This course, taking place across 20th and 21st October, is designed for those who require Group C safeguarding training as part of their role, providing the knowledge and understanding needed to recognise and respond appropriately to safeguarding concerns.

Safeguarding is about protecting children and adults from abuse or neglect and educating those around them to recognise the signs and dangers.

Group C practitioners are those who have direct responsibility for safeguarding people:

who have an assessing role that’s linked to the safeguarding process and / or

who are operating at a level where they can give advice about safeguarding to those in group A and group B and / or

in a setting they work in or manage and / or

with whom they spend a lot of time unsupervised and there may be safeguarding concerns.

Group C practitioners also include an organisation’s designated safeguarding person and people who take a more prominent role in safeguarding decisions, including those with an active role in core groups and protection planning activities.

If you need support with any of the information above or about setting a safeguarding policy, please reach out to FLVC.
