Designated Safeguarding Officer Drop In session
Thursday 1 February, 9.30am-10.30am (FULLY BOOKED)
Register your interest to be notified of new dates, or new spaces opening up.
Our Designated Safeguarding Officer drop in session is a safe space to come together informally and share insights, challenges and successes with like minded peers.
We know that as a designated safeguarding officer or lead, it can be challenging and sometimes overwhelming. Our safe space is an opportunity to connect and learn from others in the sector. It is a great opportunity to seek support and professional development whilst expanding your safeguarding network.
It is also an opportunity to keep up to date with trends, legislation and guidance changes as well as best practice in safeguarding.
Delegates will need to attend the live session as there won’t be a recording. Places are limited. If there is significant interest, we may need to arrange a new drop-in date with some delegates.

“Digital Safeguarding just got a whole lot easier to navigate thanks to a brilliant online training session with Lou Willis-Keeler of psych-logical. With just the right approach and pitch-perfect pace, Lou achieved the impossible by keeping all of us interested and actively involved with plenty of engagement opportunities. Lou has fantastic knowledge and warm and friendly style. We all came away feeling like it was time very well spent. Highly recommended”
