This workshop focuses on developing your confidence in safeguarding matters, and ensuring that you are up to date with the latest safeguarding governance and understand your responsibility as a trustee.
This live, interactive training focuses on the role application of trustee duties in the context of safeguarding. Along with our other trustee training, we can support you in your role as trustee and ensure you are meeting the Charity Good Governance Code.
