We hold monthly drop-in sessions on ZOOM for parish safeguarding officers to ask general questions about safeguarding, including the parish safeguarding dashboards, or just to come and listen. These are held in the first week of the month, on different days and times of day to try to accommodate as many as possible.
In response to requests from PSOs,s we are trialing dividing the sessions into two parts. In the first 20 minutes we will cover more procedural questions, and the second 20 mins will be a more reflective space where you can share how you are feeling about the PSO role in your context and give some more general feedback.
We are aware that everyone has commitments so you are welcome to stay for as long or as short as you wish. The upcoming sessions are as follows:
- Thursday 6th February 2025, 1000-1040
- Wednesday 5th March 2025, 1500-1540
- Friday 4th April 2025, 0930-1010
- Tuesday 6th May 2025, 1900-1945
