Reviews

What people who’ve taken our Safeguarding training have to say:

  • I received detailed information I did not previously have. It was important to learn more about the different forms of abuse, particularly those that can be hidden or not obvious. I feel better equipped to handle any concerns in my context.

  • Very insightful, thorough, personal and much more relevant and interesting than other safeguarding training I have received in the past. I left feeling assured and confident. 

  • I really liked the variety and depth of information, also the opportunity to test knowledge throughout and apply to my own professional setting. The case studies and examples linking it to Museums were so helpful.

  • I enjoyed how bespoke the training was to those working in theatre and youth contexts, as well as how kind the trainer was at sharing their knowledge and expertise. 

  • I have increased my confidence in identifying and handling safeguarding concerns. This was a really thorough and kind way to train us on an emotionally difficult topic, and it was pitched excellently, with really helpful, relevant case studies for our organisation. 

  • The course was excellent, well-judged for the context, relevant to our sector, and well worth the time investment.
