With practical strategies for staying safe and knowing when and how to intervene safety\, participants learn that strength isn’t about risk-taking\, but about awareness\, respect\, and making safe\, confident choices. \nThe session will cover:\n\nUnderstanding Risk for Men & Boys.\nSituational Awareness & Street-Smart Thinking.\nDe-escalation & Conflict Avoidance.\nBystander Intervention & Protecting Others\n\nWho should attend: Suitable for all however not recommended for those under the age of 16 years of age. \nThis session is delivered in partnership with The Safeguarding Foundation: www.thesafeguardingfoundation.co.uk \nFor further information or questions regarding suitability of learners\, please email: john@thesafeguardingfoundation.co.uk \nJoining notes for learners:\n\nThis session will be held virtually online\, so please make sure you have access to ZOOM online or the App beforehand.\nPlease note that this session is not suitable for anyone under the age of 16 years of age.\nThere is an expectation that all delegates engage and fully participate in the session; please where possible have your camera on at all times.\nBe aware that no online platform is completely secure\, so keep questions general\, and avoid giving any information that could be used to identify a child or family.\nAlways keep your speaker on mute if you’re not speaking to reduce background noise.\nPlease join on laptop or PC for a better experience.\n\nNotes for members:\n\nThis session is open to VAC members and voluntary organisations / groups delivering services in Camden only.\nAll ticket registrations will be verified\, and non-attendees may be restricted from attending future VAC training and events.\nIf you are not a member of VAC and would like to find out more about our membership offer\, please click here: https://vac.org.uk/get-involved/membership/\nAll attendees will be asked to complete a short evaluation at the end of the session\, where on completion all workshop slides / recordings will be provided.\n\nBook Here for free\nhttps://buytickets.at/voluntaryactioncamden/1982747
