Participants should be only those who have already completed an Advanced-level of Child Protection training within statutory or setting-related timescales, and who now need to maintain this level of training.

Also, it will be necessary for participants to have completed distance learning provided, prior to the webinar.

Participants will be expected to have a good working knowledge of safeguarding with experience of statutory and local child protection responsibilities and procedures.


Effective child protection depends not only on reliable and accepted procedures for all staff involved with children, but also on their skills, knowledge and judgment and the ability to work together co-operatively.

Staff with lead roles in child protection require specialised training in order to carry out their work with abused children and families.

The learning outcomes for this training are designed to ensure that all participants receive updates in the latest child protection legislation, statutory guidance, local policies, procedures and professional requirements.

Overwhelm happens to all of us when we are under a lot of stress, and it can be heightened by the sensory environment around us. This will be an interactive practical session where you can make a sensory item with us or just simply watch and get ideas. 

We will be able to discuss/share ideas and strategies to help your child/young person to ensure their sensory needs are being met, therefore, reducing their overwhelm. 

If you would like to make a sensory item with us you will need the following items (you don't have to make them all, just choose the ones you prefer) :

Lava sensory bottle

1 sturdy small clear bottle 500/600ml ('smart' water bottles work well)
