How confident are your staff in spotting and responding to harmful behaviours in line with their safeguarding responsibilities?
We’re excited to be teaming up with our friends at Psych-Logical to host this interactive online workshop on recognising and responding to harmful behaviours.
In this interactive, half-day course, we’ll explore how to recognise concerning behaviours and respond appropriately — especially in the context of PREVENT, exploitation, and harmful sexual behaviour.
Taking place on Wednesday 24 September 2025 (9.30am-1.00pm), this session will help you:
- Spot behavioural indicators that may point to safeguarding concerns
- Understand the psychology of grooming and the process of radicalisation
- Build effective intervention strategies — to protect yourself and others
- Approach difficult conversations using trauma-informed techniques
- Identify referral routes and key support agencies
This is a practical course. Through real-life scenarios and peer discussion, you’ll come away with a clear plan of action and greater confidence in your duty of care.
You can book onto this workshop for £150+vat.
You will receive a CPD attendance certificate after the session, as evidence of your personal development.
