Do you work in dance with young people or adults with additional needs?

Whether you’re a dance teacher, artist, workshop leader, practitioner or facilitator, safeguarding is your responsibility, and keeping yourself and your participants safe is your duty.

Our Safeguarding Training Workshop is designed to help you understand and feel comfortable and confident about the role of safeguarding in your work.

In the training you will learn how to recognise and respond to safeguarding issues, and record and report on safeguarding, so you can provide a safe environment, which promotes the health and well-being of participants and ensures a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.

The training covers a wide range of subjects within safeguarding and includes:

• Introduction to safeguarding.
• The role of safeguarding in your work.
• Good practice guidelines for practitioners/organisations.
• What to include in your safeguarding policy.
• Changes and updates to safeguarding policies and child licensing regulations.
• Internet and Social Media safety.
• Facilitation of Touch/Non-verbal negotiation of touch.
• DBS/Chaperoning.

Led by Jane McLean, Creative Director at Cheshire Dance, the workshop is a valuable CPD opportunity to help you feel empowered and incorporate best safeguarding practice into your work.
