NSPCC Learning Podcast

12: Nominated child protection lead overview


Listen Later

This summer, we are releasing a compilation of episodes on key topics related to safeguarding children and young people within your community.  

Learn more about:

  • building a safer culture in your organisation
  • how to deal with and respond to concerns about a young person or adult
  • making the nominated lead role visible to children, staff and parents so they know who to go to for support
  • training and development needs, including supervision and support for nominated leads
  • the importance of establishing multi-agency relationships.
  • These episodes were produced as part of a partnership led by NCVO, funded by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) and the National Lottery Fund within the Safeguarding Training Fund programme.
