Safeguarding of adults, young people and children is everybody’s business. It means protecting an individual's right to live in safety, free from abuse and neglect.
Ensuring the welfare of all adults is vital, and voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) organisations should be aware of how to protect the people they work with from harm.
Join us for this one-hour training session to learn:
- The current legislation around safeguarding
- How to recognise the signs of abuse and neglect
- How to report a concern
- Where to go to seek advice
The session will be led by Louise Smailes, Deputy Designated Nurse for Safeguarding Adults, and Kerry Male, Deputy Designated Nurse for Safeguarding Children for NHS Somerset.
Next date: Tuesday 13 January 2026
Tickets are available to staff and volunteers of VCFSE organisations in Somerset, and will be of particular interest to those responsible for safeguarding within their group. Due to the number of places available, we ask that you limit the number of tickets to 2 per organisation.
