Safeguarding Leads

As the person responsible for the day to day safeguarding management and implementation of policy and procedures, we aim to cover all the core aspects of managing adult safeguarding, connecting into the agencies you may need to report to and understanding the legislation you and the charity will be held accountable to. We aim to explore making that accessible across the charity for volunteer, workers and messaging safeguarding to the women you serve.

By the end of the session, you will have:

• Considered the key principles and aims of the Care Act 2014 in respect of women who sell sex
• Reviewed types of harm and responses to different levels of abuse/ concerns with women selling sex
• Have more appreciation for the importance of adult safeguarding process’, and the use of the Mental Capacity Act and Making Safeguarding personal (MSP)
• Understood the effective management of concerns and allegations and using local reporting protocols (sec 42 enquiries)
• Reflected on key responsibilities under the Care Act and how adult safeguarding can be upheld and further improved across the charity.
