Daring To Be Different

Our experience has taught us that safeguarding requirements vary.  You may wish to purchase a half or full day of our time and use it in a variety of different ways, e.g., training, advice, policy development, writing of Train the Trainer materials, supervision or anything else safeguarding related! We are delighted to provide that flexibility.  You decide.  You may only require an hour of our time and again, that flexibility is there.  Only purchase what you need, when you need it.
