In March 2024 we welcomed Luke Ambler, Founder of Andy’s Man Club (AMC), and his new team ‘The Ambler Training Group’ to talk about Safeguarding Children and Adults at risk of Harm. The team received my CPD accredited course ‘The 3 Rs of Safeguarding’, complete with a personal copy of the Pocket Guide to Safeguarding meaning that they now all know how to recognise, respond and report safeguarding concerns to the right person at the right time.

Staying Face-To-Face
Halfway through the pandemic I was told, “If you don’t get online with your training you will get left behind.”
So I tried it, and for me it doesn’t work. I have since kept my resolve to only ever deliver my safeguarding training courses and MHFA England courses face-to-face.
Here my top 4 reasons why;
1/The learning that happens within the training room – participants learn from each other, not just from me. I get to see lasting work relationships between agencies form, which strengthen safeguarding practice outside of the training room.
2/The connection, the energy, the synergy in the room. It’s powerful, and transformational, and it drives forward good practice.
3/ The lightbulb moments – priceless
4/ The support I can provide to others, not just as a trainer but emotionally should they need it (I am a survivor and often meet other survivors in my training room who I am ready to catch if they need it).
My hope is that online training does not become the ‘NORM’ and the easy go-to for training as we move through the next 12 months. We lose so much online. Lets keep connecting where and when it is safe to do so. #safeguardingchildren #training
