Safeguarding event

Protecting an adult's right to live in safety, free from abuse, neglect, or exploitation is just as important as protecting the rights of children.

This introductory session aims to give learners an introduction to adult safeguarding, with a focus on preventing abuse and ensuring safety and well-being.

Using group discussions and real-life case studies, Helen Onslow; a Lead Practitioner in Camden’s Adult Social Care team will cover all safeguarding essentials.

The session will cover:
Developing a clear communication strategy.
Creating engaging and eye-catching content.
Independently overseeing all communications.
Utilising digital platforms and social media.

With a combination of written text, case studies and video presentations, this workshop will cover:

What is Safeguarding?
Types of abuse / recognising the signs.
Passing on information
Signposting and Support in Camden.
Suitable for volunteers, new starters and all those with little or no safeguarding training.

The session will also cover:
The importance of safe recruitment in voluntary organisations.
What to consider when preparing to recruit.

So, join us for a morning of safeguarding discussion, protective cultures and policy review.

Have you ever wondered who cares for the carer?
Do they know they are a carer, and as a carer, have rights and are entitled to support?

If you engage with individuals who are looking after a friend or family member who couldn’t manage without their support, this person is providing an unpaid care service.
This could be because the person has a health condition, mental health condition, disability or is frail.
