Duty of care
Practical safeguarding awareness for staff who may identify concerns involving adults, children, families, carers or vulnerable people.
Practical safeguarding awareness for staff who may identify concerns involving adults, children, families, carers or vulnerable people.
The course is designed to help staff recognise risk early, apply clear procedures, and make calm choices they can stand behind under pressure.
Frontline workers, support teams, care providers, charities, education settings, and community organisations.
Delivery can be adapted around role, sector, incident history, and the confidence your organisation needs delegates to build.
Why this training matters
This course helps staff recognise safeguarding concerns involving adults, children, families or carers, respond appropriately to disclosures, record relevant information and follow internal reporting routes with confidence.
Sessions are designed for up to 15 delegates, in person and online. Smaller groups keep everyone involved in the discussion and scenario practice, which is where most of the learning happens. We can take up to 20 where an organisation needs it, with an additional charge for each delegate above 15.
Allow up to five weeks from confirmation to the first session. That depends on trainer availability and your own staff availability. The window is used to review your policies, build your reporting routes into the material, and give teams time to attend. Where a programme runs across several sessions, the full schedule is agreed up front so you can plan cover.
In-house at your premises, or live online with a trainer. Both formats are tutor-led and cover the same content, discussion and scenario work.
In person across England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. Live online sessions can be delivered to teams anywhere in the world. Training is delivered in English, with live subtitles through Microsoft Teams or PowerPoint, which can translate captions into the delegate's own language. Where legislation differs across the UK and Ireland, we research the law that applies to you and build it into the material rather than delivering the England and Wales position by default.
Larger workforces are trained as a planned programme, not a single booking. The schedule is agreed at the start and worked around shift patterns and cover. Where travel is involved we will look at consecutive days. Half-day courses often run back to back, morning and afternoon on the same day, with a saving on the half-day rate. Sessions are delivered by associate trainers. We keep the same trainer where we can.
We do not publish prices. Cost depends on group numbers, delivery format, travel, overnight accommodation where the location requires it, and how much bespoke design a programme needs. Any figure published here would be misleading. Tell us what you need and we will quote for it.
