Find out what is required by your charity to safeguard the people in its care
Safeguarding ensures that all people who are in some way connected to our charity have their welfare and human rights protected. Failing to safeguard our people can have catastrophic consequences: not just for those who have been personally harmed, but for the charity and the entire charity sector.
This course covers charity legal obligations to safeguarding and how to satisfy them. Not just because it’s the law but because it is the right thing to do.
Through this course, you will: 
- Find out about safeguarding and your charity’s legal obligations to it.
- Discover who is considered a ‘vulnerable person’ and discuss the factors that make a person ‘vulnerable’.
- Learn about safeguarding risks and identify ways to manage them.
- Locate and apply templates and useful resources to your charity that are relevant to safeguarding.
This course is for anyone seeking to protect the welfare and human rights of those who are in some way connected to their charity, especially ‘vulnerable people’.
This includes charity leaders, staff, volunteers and sector advisors.
