WHAT WE OFFER
Safeguarding training for charity volunteers and community groups
Our safeguarding training for volunteers helps charities and community organisations choose learning for the people they support. Charity volunteers, library volunteers, parent helpers and under-5s volunteers can compare courses covering children only or both children and adults at risk, depending on their role and setting.
Choose introductory training for volunteers starting their learning, or further training for safeguarding leads and deputies who have already completed an introductory course. For help planning your organisation’s approach, read our guide to safeguarding training for charities.
Our online learning management system helps you oversee volunteer training and completions, with bulk discounts available. Combine learning with your organisation’s induction and reporting procedures, and visit each course page for full content and enrolment details.
