00:00:01.100 --> 00:00:03.700
Welcome to the Safeguarding Essentials course.

00:00:04.500 --> 00:00:06.400
In this course we’ll look at the problems

00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:08.800
that children and adults at risk can face.

00:00:09.500 --> 00:00:11.600
We’ll show you how to spot potential problems,

00:00:11.900 --> 00:00:14.200
and what you should do if you have any concerns.

00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:17.100
We’ll give you some useful pointers, too,

00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:19.600
on maintaining a professional relationship

00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:21.300
with children and young people,

00:00:21.700 --> 00:00:25.200
in order to create a safe and positive environment for them.

00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.500
We’ll focus on practical guidance and advice,

00:00:28.500 --> 00:00:30.600
so you won’t get bogged down with details.

00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:33.200
But, if you do want to dig deeper at any point,

00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:35.300
or have a question about anything we cover,

00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.000
you can always use our Ask the Expert feature.

00:00:38.600 --> 00:00:40.000

00:00:40.300 --> 00:00:42.500
you’ll have the knowledge and confidence you need

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:45.200
to help safeguard children and adults at risk.
