ABUSED TRAINING

Overview

This course is ideal for anyone working predominantly with children, including teachers,
police, social workers, GPs and youth workers. Training will ensure that delegates are aware
of the different types of abuse and the effects which they cause. Delegates will also learn

communication they need, building a relationship based on trust and ensuring that no
further abuse occurs.
