MODULE 2 – Training for Staff and Volunteers

Clubs for Young People is offering child protection training to all affiliated clubs.  Keeping safe training will ensure that your organisation has the expertise to provide training on good child protection practice for all staff and volunteers who work with children and young people.

Adults working with children and young people not only have a moral responsibility to provide a safe environment but also a legal responsibility to ensure that the welfare of the child is of paramount importance. Participation in the Keeping Safe Training programme certifies quality assurance in good practice within your organisation and Clubs for Young People recommend that all staff who work with children and young people partake in the training.
