Safeguarding Children and Young People with Simultaneous BSL

Do you have a hearing impairment and/or deafness or interact with those who do? Help us empower d/Deaf and hearing-impaired individuals and communities to safeguard those they serve. 

Date: 17 June 2023

Time: 9.30am - 12.30pm  

As an independent Christian safeguarding charity, our vision is a world where every child and adult can feel, and be, safe.

We believe we all have a role to play in creating safer places. But, all too often, the training that equips people to create those safer places isn't accessible.

Join our one-off training in Safeguarding Children and Young People event with simultaneous British Sign Language interpretation for free in return for feedback so we can improve the accessibility of our training courses.

 Please note, photographs will be taken during the session for marketing purposes but these will be focused on the trainer and interpreter so delegates will mostly only appear in ‘back of heads’ shots.  

Course details:
