This programme aims to provide Community Prison Chaplains with a foundational understanding of safeguarding and understand the implications of this for their role.
This programme is comprised of the following modules:
By the end of this programme, you will:
- Be able to understand what safeguarding means.
- Be able to recognise the signs and indicators of abuse in children and adults.
- Be able to respond to safeguarding concerns.
- Be able to record your concerns.
- Be able to identify where to get advice, support and help (refer).
- Understand what safeguarding arrangements your organisation should have in place.
- Identify the gaps in your own knowledge about your organisation's safeguarding arrangements.
- Apply the understanding you gained in your previous safeguarding training to some scenarios you may encounter in supporting people with criminal convictions.
NB. This programme will not equip you to be an expert in safeguarding but to understand the basics, how you can play your part and what your organisation should have in place. You will identify during the course where to get more help and expertise from.
