Safeguarding Week Session 1: An Introduction to Safeguarding Internationally

A member-led week of Safeguarding Refresher Training for small charities working globally and their Trustees. Facilitated by Dan Hope from Strengthening Families and Children (SFAC) and Gary Trundell from Global Safeguarding. Both have fantastic levels of experience and are experts in their field and we are hugely lucky to have their support in this training. Dan and his organisation SFAC have over 25 years of experience working in 61 countries with a workforce based in various countries.

“We have worked with over 110 orgs from the UK to overseas. We will bring that experience into the safeguarding workshop alongside our work in the UK completing safeguarding reviews for organisations.”
