This training session will focus on your responsibilities to keep people safe who may come into contact with your organisation. The training will include an overview of Health and Safety Law and specifically those parts relevant to VCSE organisations such as:
- Insurance
- Risk Assessments
- First Aid
- Accidents and Incidents
- Lone Working
- Prevent
- Martyn’s Law
- Regulations
The training is aimed at providing basic knowledge rather than specialist advice so will be most relevant for new organisations, small to medium local charities, and volunteer-run organisations.
